2026年10月14日，法国国民联盟党总统候选人玛丽娜·勒庞现身布鲁塞尔。
Marine Le Pen, RN presidential candidate, in Brussels, October 14, 2026.
当天清晨，她在《金融时报》上宣布计划前往布鲁塞尔与欧洲各方展开一场“较量”。
That very morning, Marine Le Pen had announced in the Financial Times that she intended to travel to Brussels to engage in a "showdown" with Europe.
然而，尽管她在报纸上发表了这些掷地有声的言论，这位将于2027年竞选法国总统的极右翼候选人最终还是在10月14日星期三与自己长期以来的极右翼盟友们在欧盟首府进行了一次低调的会晤。
But after those thundering remarks in the pages of the newspaper Brussels insiders swear by, the far-right candidate for France's 2027 presidential election ultimately settled, on Wednesday, October 14, for a discreet meeting in the EU capital with her longtime far-right allies.
她还以比以往更为委婉的外交辞令为自己的削减欧盟预算的激进计划进行了辩护。
She also defended, in more diplomatic terms than usual, her radical plan to slash the European Union's (EU) budget.
这位民调领先的候选人随后在一家俯瞰着比利时首都的豪华酒店顶层休息室内举行了简短的新闻发布会，并随即乘火车返回巴黎。
她明确表示：“我将力争将法国对欧盟的净出资额严格控制在50亿欧元以内。”
"I will push for a strict cap of €5 billion on France's net contribution to the European Union," the polls' frontrunner did confirm, in a lounge on the top floor of a luxury hotel overlooking the Belgian capital, where she held a brief press conference before catching her train back to Paris.
据她透露，这一数额意味着法国向布鲁塞尔缴纳的款项将比目前减少45亿欧元，不过这一数字仍低于国民联盟党于10月6日公布预算方案时所提出的削减超过110亿欧元的目标。
She acknowledged that this would amount to a cut of €4.5 billion from what France currently pays to Brussels, less than the more than €11 billion in cuts the Rassemblement National (RN) had advocated when it presented its budget program on October 6.
