French far-right presidential candidate Eric Zemmour launched his campaign with a political rally at an exhibition centre in Villepinte, a suburb of Paris on Sunday, where he vowed a 'reconquest'.

Thousands of supporters gathered for the first campaign rally, where supporters were seen punching and throwing chairs at protesters.

The 63-year-old author and television commentator who announced that he would run in April 2022 elections, kicked off his "reconquest".

"The reconquest is now launched. The reconquest of our economy, the reconquest of our security, the reconquest of our identity, the reconquest of our sovereignty, the reconquest of our country," said the 63-year-old author who announced that he would run in April 2022 elections earlier this week. "From the first weeks of my mandate, zero immigration will become a clear objective of our policy."

The far-right figure and long-time television personality is known for his inflammatory anti-immigration rhetoric and for believing Marine Le Pen's National Rally party is too far left.
