A Shanghai university has bought the former headquarters of French political party the National Front in Paris, news agency Agence France-Presse (AFP) reported yesterday.
"A formal sale offer has been signed with a university in Shanghai," AFP quoted the party's press service as saying.
The National Front, which is known for its anti-immigrant stance, is headed by 79-year-old Jean-Marie Le Pen, who has campaigned several times to become president of France under the slogan "Keep France for the French".
