On 25 April 2017, after the resignation of Marine Le Pen as leader of the National Front, Jalkh was named as the interim leader. He stepped down three days later, on April 28, after being heavily criticised on comments made about Nazi extermination camps (see below). He was replaced by Steeve Briois as Interim Leader.
He is known for his "vieille garde" (old guard) views, relating to the pre-de-demonisation platform of the FN, such as calling the use of Zyklon B in the Holocaust "technically impossible"[2] and opposing the expulsion of Jean-Marie Le Pen from the Front National.
