  • France 24 foregrounds Mélenchon's appeal to younger voters, calling him a 'Gen Z favourite', and centres his 'A Shared Future' manifesto and retirement-age pledge, while giving little attention.
  • The Financial Times foregrounds the candidate's ideological positioning, calling him a 'far-left presidential hopeful' who pledges a 'revolutionary' remaking of society, centring Mélenchon's rhetoric while omitting the manifesto's.
