French MP for Calvados's 2nd constituency since 2022
Foreign ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova has banned lawmakers Sacha Houlie and Arthur Delaporte, along with journalists Paul Gogo and Ariane Chemin, from entering Russia over alleged harassment of Xenia Fedorova, former head of RT France. France described Fedorova as an agent of influence and expelled her in July. Moscow vows retaliation against perceived persecution, as Western journalists and lawmakers face travel bans since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
