Pool Reporter
French National Front leader Marine Le Pen was seen having coffee with three men at the Trump-branded cafe in in Trump Tower Thursday morning, according to pool reports.
Le Pen — known for her anti-immigration, and anti-refugee policies — declined to answer whether she was there to meet with the president-elect or if she was visiting in a professional or personal capacity. It is unclear who the men accompanying her are.
Le Pen is expected to launch her presidential campaign next month. She is currently leading polls for the presidency in France.
Le Pen's unannounced visit to New York is a "private visit," her chief of staff David Rachline told Bloomberg. Rachline said it is not on La Pen's "public agenda," when asked if she is meeting with Trump or the transition team. "We do not communicate about private visits."
Le Pen supported Trump during the presidential campaign.
“Between him and Hillary Clinton, it is clear that I would choose Donald Trump," she said in July, adding that Trump "is a free man, not beholden to Wall Street, markets or financial lobbies, or even his own party."
