Far-right political pundit and politician Eric Zemmour announced his candidacy for president on Tuesday in Paris at his campaign headquarters.
Zemmour is know for his hard-lined views particularly against Islam and immigration and could be a challenger to Marine Le Pen's National Rally party.
The 63-year-old Zemmour recently took harsh criticism after a rally in Marseille over the weekend where he was confronted by protesters and displayed an offensive gesture to a woman outside his car window.
Zemmour is currently polling behind Macron and Le Pen and finds himself neck and neck with Xavier Bertrand after a recent dip in the polls.
