McKinsey Office Searched in Connection with Macron’s Illegal Financing Case

The premises of the American company McKinsey were searched in connection with the case of illegal financing of the election campaigns of French President Emmanuel Macron in 2017 and 2022. This was reported on November 17 by a source. “On November 6, the McKinsey office was searched as part of a judicial investigation conducted by Paris investigating judge Serge Tourneur,” the source said on Monday. It is clarified that investigators have already searched the homes of current and former McKinsey executives, the office of Macron’s Renaissance party, as well as the Paris headquarters of the consulting firm. Back in November 2022, the French Financial Prosecutor’s Office launched an investigation into Macron, whose 2017 and 2022 election campaigns are suspected of illegal financing by McKinsey. President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky’s decision was condemned for approving a declaration on Kiev’s purchase of French weapons.
