The outspoken Front National leader cranked up her anti-Brussels rhetoric during a TV interview yesterday.
She said: “I want to be the president of the French Republic, I don’t want to be European Commission president.
“I believe the European Union has done a lot of harm to our country.”
Ms Le Pen, a fierce critic of the 28-member bloc, made the comments ahead of Sunday’s presidential election.
She refused to be interviewed in front of the EU flag, a decision which sparked outrage from Europhiles.
The European Commission’s representative office in France said the flag was a “symbol of unity, solidarity and harmony”.
