[0:05](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/u2rxoHZBzecV/en/%C3%A9ric-zemmour-confirms-presidential-bid?t=5) For what reason? With what platform? What program?

[0:08](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/u2rxoHZBzecV/en/%C3%A9ric-zemmour-confirms-presidential-bid?t=8) How is it different from 2022? You got 7% back then.

[0:43](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/u2rxoHZBzecV/en/%C3%A9ric-zemmour-confirms-presidential-bid?t=43) I'm running to ensure France remains French and our future is French.
