Eric Zemmour says foreign leader he feels ‘culturally and intellectually’ closest to is the British PM
The far-right French presidential candidate Eric Zemmour has said of all world leaders he is compared to he feels most like the British prime minister, Boris Johnson.
The former journalist, who is often compared to Donald Trump, was speaking on France Inter’s morning news programme when asked about “populist” foreign leaders. The interviewer mentioned Trump, the Brazilian president, Jair Bolsonaro, and Italy’s former deputy prime minister Matteo Salvini and asked if they were models for Zemmour.
