That’s Sophie Chikirou of La France Insoumise (LFI), the leading French left-wing populist party. Apparently, she’s also in a relation with the party’s founder and long-term leader Jean-Luc Mélenchon, so also quite ‘prominent’.
Anything extreme or radical typically is, it makes it harder for traditional parties to govern, and they tend to shift away from the political center themselves as well. It’s political disruption, plain and simple.
The fuck is she doing slithering up to Putin then? Do they think Lenin’s corpse is suddenly going to bust out of its glass sarcophagus and bring back the CCCP?
They’re so obsessed with ‘overcoming the system’ that they don’t care whatsoever who to share the bed with to - allegedly - reach that goal.
That their great benefactor doesn’t want them to reach their - or any - goal at all but just plays them like a puppet master to sow constant dissent, is beyond their scope of understanding. Useful idiots.
Seems to be the French equivalent of Germany’s Sahra Wagenknecht. Also nominally left-wing populist, but pro-Russia and taking weird rightwing talking points.

Most left-wing populist parties in Europe are financed by Russia while most right-wing populist parties are financed by Russia.

The right wing parties shift away from the center. Not so much the left leaning parties.

She should be banned from national politics.
