PARIS — French commentator turned politician Raphael Glucksmann was on Sunday expected to announce his candidacy for France’s presidential election next year, entering a field that is crowded even just on the left wing of France’s political spectrum.
Former essayist Glucksmann, 46, is a European parliament deputy and son of the late renowned Jewish philosopher Andre Glucksmann. He leads the center-left party Place Publique, and is expected to use a primetime interview on French television Sunday night to declare he is entering the race.
