PARIS, Feb. 24 (Xinhua) -- French far-right leader Marine Le Pen would respond to police questions on alleged misuse of European Union funds after this year's presidential election, Le Pen's defense lawyer Rodolphe Bosselut said on Friday.
"(Le Pen) will comply with any summons after elections. It's not an obstruction of justice but an obstruction to a form of injustice which targeted her at full presidential campaign," Bosselut told BFMTV news channel.
The anti-Europe and migration presidential contender on Wednesday refused to attend police summon over fake job claims.
On Wednesday, Catherine Griset, Le Pen chief of staff was put under formal investigation as part of a probe into the alleged misuse of EU funds.
She was placed into custody along with Le Pen's bodyguard Thierry Legier, who was later released.
The European Anti-Fraud Office (OLAF) accused Le Pen of using European Parliament funds to pay her France-based assistant a total of 298,500 euros (316,290 U.S. dollars) between December 2010 and February 2016.
According to European rules, the EU parliamentary aide should work in one of the parliament's three offices in Brussels, Strasbourg or Luxembourg.
The far-right leader and European lawmaker, is also accused of paying her bodyguard of 41,554 euros for the October-December 2011 period, according to local reports.
Le Pen, who enjoyed immunity, rejected any wrongdoing and called the affair "a political plot" to take the wind out her sails as she is gaining public support and challenge the country's traditional right and left parties.
An Opinionway survey released on Thursday showed the far-right contender could be at the top of first round election in April with 26 percent against the independent centrist Emmanuel Macron's 23 percent and the conservative Francois Fillon's 21 percent.
However, she would lose to whoever should be her rival in the second decisive round. (1 euro =1.059 U.S. dollar)
KHARTOUM Cheap NikeLab Air Max 97 Mid Boots Triple White Rainbow UK , Nov. 4 (Xinhua) -- The visit of South Sudan President Salva Kiir Mayardit to Khartoum on Tuesday has sent positive signals that the two sides are pressing ahead towards settling their differences on the border and economic issues, analysts said.
Kiir's visit, however, came under exchanged accusations between Khartoum and Juba of supporting armed groups in the two countries.
The latest accusation Cheap Men's Nike Air Max 97 OG GS Army Green Black UK , accoding to South Sudanese media, said Sudanese planes have bombarded sites in South Sudan's Bahral- Ghazal State, claiming that 32 civilians were killed.
"It is clear that there are attempts by some forces in South Sudan to bring the relationship between Khartoum and Juba back to square one after the recent closeness between the two countries," Dr. Mohamed Hassan Saeed Cheap Men's Nike Air Max 97 OG GS All Red UK , a Sudanese political analyst, told Xinhua Tuesday.
"It was a positive matter that the visit took place despite the accusations," he said, adding that "the visit has sent a clear message that the leaderships in Sudan and South Sudan are resolutely pressing ahead towards settling their differences."
The final communique Cheap Men's Nike Air Max 97 OG GS All Blue UK , issued at the conclusion of the joint talks between president Kiir and his Sudanese counterpart Omar al- Bashir in Khartoum Tuesday, carried clear answers regarding the security issue where the two sides urged for immediate commencement on establishing the demilitarized zone along the joint border and stoppage of provision of support and shelter for the armed groups in the two countries.
According to the communique, the two sides further expressed readiness to work together to increase the oil production at Fuluj and Adar oil fields in South Sudan and assist the technicians to resume production at Unity oil field in South Sudan, which ceased production due to the clashes between South Sudan army and defectors loyal to former vice-president Riek Machar.
In this respect Cheap Nike Air Max 97 OG Undefeated Black UK , Abdul-Illah Suleiman, a Sudanese economic analyst, said the oil issue constitutes a great importance for both Sudan and South Sudan.
"The two countries are facing similar economic problems, and therefore the halting of the South's oil production is also in the interest of Sudan where the oil flows through its oil utilities and helps it get hard currency Cheap Nike Air Max 97 OG Undefeated Olive Green UK ," Suleiman told Xinhua.
"South Sudan, in turn, does not have any resources other than oil, not to mention that it is facing difficult conditions because of the security tension which caused its oil production to decrease. Therefore Cheap Nike Air Max 97 OG Undefeated White UK , if Sudan supported the South's efforts to resume production at unity oil field, then that will achieve common interests for the two sides," he noted.
In September 2012, Sudan and South Sudan signed a cooperation agreement in the Ethiopian capital of Addis Ababa under the patronage of the African Union.
The agreement included a package of understandings related to security Cheap Men's Nike Air Max 97 Ultra Black White UK , citizens' status, border and economic issues. However, the signed agreements did not tackle the issues of Abyei and border demarcation.
The issue of the border areas constitutes one of the biggest barriers hampering the settlement of differences between Sudan and South Sudan where the two countries dispute over five border areas, including the oil-rich Abyei.
