Yesterday, Sunday, a demonstration went out denouncing the far-right candidacy of Eric Zemmour for the French presidency and his speech, which he built on rejecting immigration and Islam.

According to the Paris police, 2,200 people participated in the demonstration, while the organizers announced that it included 10,000 people.

Zemmour had announced his candidacy in a video posted on YouTube that included many warnings about immigrants and pledges to restore France's prestige on the international scene.

On Sunday, the candidate called on his supporters to "change the course of history" and move towards "reclaiming" France, during his first gathering in the Paris region in front of a crowd of his supporters.

The candidate - who based his speech months ago on the rejection of immigration and Islam - added that "the bet is huge, if I win, this will be the beginning of recovering the most beautiful countries in the world," and added that "the French people have lived here for a thousand years and want to remain masters in their country."

He announced to his supporters his rejection of the label "extreme right", and promised to end immigration, cancel the right to family reunification and resort to the expulsion of irregular immigrants, and abolish social and medical aid for non-European foreigners, pledges that inflamed the enthusiasm of the present public.

Zemmour also called on Muslims to "integrate", and pledged to put all these measures to the "French people" to a referendum, and said, "Our survival is not subject to the goodwill of European judges."

The candidate who chose for his campaign the slogan "The Impossible is not French", a phrase attributed to Napoleon, and who officially launched his party on Sunday and called it "Recovery", climbed to the stage to the sound of festive music after a delay of more than an hour.

AFP correspondents reported that activists from SOS RACISME who organized a demonstration that was supposed to be "non-violent", were attacked by participants in the meeting, and at least 2 of them were seriously injured.
