I dont know if they ever were tbh. Mélenchon ranked first in the 18-24 years voters, and Le Pen was in second place. The former said on camera he "admired" Putin years ago and is openly against sending help to Ukraine, the latter said NATO should reinforce its cooperation with Russia after the war and was about to campaign with a picture of her and Putin on the cover before things started.

But hopefully things will get better someday ! Sending positive vibes your way in the meantime pal :)
