Juan Branco (Spanish pronunciation: [ˈxwan ˈbɾaŋko], French: [bʁɑ̃ko], born 1989) is a French- Spanish lawyer, political activist and writer.

Branco was born in Spain and grew up in Paris. While a student at the Paris Institute of Political Studies (Sciences Po), he stood for the Green Party in local elections. He then fought against the HADOPI law and worked on the 2012 presidential election campaign of Socialist Party's candidate, François Hollande. As a legal advisor of Wikileaks and Julian Assange between 2015 and 2019, he stood unsuccessfully in the 2017 French legislative election as a candidate for the left wing populist party La France Insoumise. In 2018 he became involved with the Yellow vests movement, some of whose members he defended in court pro bono.

Branco has published thirteen books, the most successful of which is Crépuscule (2019). Selling more than 150,000 copies within a year of publication, this work is a polemic against the links that, according to the author, unite economic, media and political leaders in France.[1] First and foremost, Emmanuel Macron and his party; he exposed the private lives of several of its members in order to reveal "nepotism". In particular, Branco courted controversy for his involvement with the Russian performance artist Petr Pavlensky in the Griveaux affair in 2020.

In July 2023, as he was a member of the legal team of the Senegalese opposition leader Ousmane Sonko, he accused the Senegalese government of crimes against humanity at the International Criminal Court. In reaction, the Senegalese authorities issued an international arrest warrant against him; he was arrested in August 2023 after entering the country clandestinely and deported to France after spending two nights in prison.

Background and education

Branco was born in 1989 in Estepona, near Málaga, one of the four children of psychoanalyst Dolores Lopez and Portuguese film producer Paulo Branco.[2][3] He grew up in the affluent neighbourhood of Saint-Germain-des-Prés in the 6th arrondissement of Paris and attended the École alsacienne, an elite private school.[2] He studied as an undergraduate at the Paris Institute of Political Studies (Sciences Po) and as a graduate and PhD student at the École normale supérieure,[2] and also at Paris-IV and Paris-I Universities; obtaining a "maîtrise"[a] in modern litterature, a master in political philosophy, another in geopolitics, and a doctorate in international law.[4]

After completing four master's degrees, he wrote his dissertation on the International Criminal Court and mass violence, travelling to the Central African Republic in 2013 during the civil war.[1] He worked briefly as a visiting researcher at Yale University, and was employed at the Max Planck Institute in Luxembourg and at La Sapienza University in Rome.[4]

Political activity

As a student, Branco stood for the Green Party in the 2008 local elections in Paris.[5] The following year, he set up the student think-tank Jeune République, with the support of former right-wing Prime Minister Dominique de Villepin.[5][2]

In 2012, after fighting against the HADOPI law, Branco worked in the "culture, audiovisual and media" department of François Hollande's (Socialist Party) presidential election campaign,[5] as the main collaborator of future Culture Minister Aurélie Filippetti.[6] According to Filippetti, he fell out with her when she did not appoint him as head of her office once she became minister[5] but according to Branco and other sources, such as French newspaper Le Monde, he was a victim of the Socialist government's new doctrine on HADOPI.[6]

In the 2017 French legislative election, Branco stood for the left-wing populist party La France Insoumise for Seine-Saint-Denis's 12th constituency, where he came fourth with 13.94% of the vote.[5]

He was an early supporter of Yellow vests movement, appearing at the head of protest marches and being present when protesters forced the doors of Benjamin Griveaux's ministry with a fork-lift truck.[5] He also defended members of the movement, including Maxime Nicolle, in court pro bono.[5] March 2019 saw the publication of his book Crépuscule, an attack on the government of President Emmanuel Macron.[7] He then called for abstention in the 2019 European Parliament election in France.[5]

Legal career

Branco was admitted to the Bar in April 2017.[5]

Prior to being admitted to the Bar, Branco had worked at the International Criminal Court, the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs[8] and as a legal advisor to Wikileaks and Julian Assange between 2015 and 2019,[5] for whom he unsuccessfully sought asylum in France.[9]

In May 2018, Branco was one of the lawyers appointed by the United Nations Multidimensional Integrated Stabilization Mission in the Central African Republic (MINUSCA) to assist the country's newly-established special criminal court. After less than two weeks he was dismissed by the United Nations for having posted on Twitter an accusation that Rwandan peacekeepers had massacred thirty civilians in the capital.[10]

Branco represented his father Paulo Branco in his legal dispute with Terry Gilliam over the film The Man Who Killed Don Quixote, with the Court of Appeal of Paris ruling in Paul Branco's favour.[11]

In June 2019, together with Israeli lawyer Omer Shatz and Shatz's students from Sciences Po, Branco filed a 245-page submission to the International Criminal Court over the deaths of thousands of migrants who drowned in the Mediterranean fleeing Libya ; they called for the prosecution of European Union and member states over the EU’s deterrence-based migration policy after 2014.[12][13] In 2021, Branco represented one of the harassers in the Mila affair, a teenager who was bullied online and threatened after she had insulted Islam in online posts.[14]

Branco represented a French fan club of FC Barcelona in an unsuccessful attempt to block Lionel Messi's move to Paris St-Germain from a financial fair play standpoint in 2021.[15] He then became La Liga's lawyer in 2022 when the league challenged the legality of Kylian Mbappe's new contract claiming Paris Saint-Germain breached financial fair-play regulations.[16]

Griveaux affair

Branco was the legal advisor of Russian performance artist Petr Pavlensky who, in February 2020, disseminated an explicit video that led to the resignation of French deputy and Paris mayoral candidate Benjamin Griveaux. Branco voiced his support for Pavlensky's actions in a way that caused speculation that he himself had played a role in the affair.[17] Rejecting the advice of the French Bar Association to resign due to his proximity to the events in question, Branco continued as part of the defence team of Pavlensky when the latter was arrested on charges of invasion of privacy and publishing sexually explicit images without consent.[18] Branco requested a psychiatric examination of the victim, which was characterised by Griveaux's lawyer as "grotesque and hateful", and refused by the court.[19]

In September 2021, Branco received a reprimand from the Paris Bar Association for having sent a link to the offending video.[20] In September 2022, investigating magistrates said that no charges would be brought against Branco although they believed that he had probably played a part in the dissemination of the explicit videos.[21] In June 2023, the reprimand from the Paris Bar Association was overturned in the Paris Court of Appeal.[20]

Sonko affair

In March 2023, Branco was invited to join the defence team of Senegalese opposition leader Ousmane Sonko, who was facing charges of defamation after he had accused the tourism minister of mismanaging public funds, but was refused entry to the country after the authorities discovered he had referred to president Macky Sall as a tyrant in social media posts.[22]

In June 2023, in the wake of unrest in Senegal, Branco accused the Senegalese government of crimes against humanity, filing a complaint in France and calling for an investigation by the International Criminal Court; in July the French Minister of Foreign Affairs responded by filing a complaint against Branco for having identified French agents in Senegal, accusing him of putting their lives in danger;[23] the Prosecutor's Office decided not to pursue the matter.[24]

Senegal meanwhile issued an international arrest warrant against Branco, which did not prevent him entering the country illegally to attend a press conference of Sonko's legal team on 30 July 2023.[25] He evaded the authorities until August 4th, when he was arrested while attempting to leave the country. Transferred to Rebeuss prison in Dakar, he appeared before a judge on 6 August and was charged with conspiracy, spreading fake news and endangering public safety.[26] The following day he was released on bail with a deportation order and arrived back in Paris on 8 August.[27] At a press conference on the same day, he urged Senegal's government to release all political prisoners.[28] On 18 August, he was received at the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, together with Said Larifou, to draw the UN's attention to Sonko's situation.[29]

Cases against Branco

In April 2021, a 20-year-old woman accused Branco of raping her after having given her the drug lamaline.[b] Branco said the sex was consensual.[30]

In 2023, an ex-employee of Branco, against whom he had filed a complaint for blackmail which was dismissed, made a claim to an employment tribunal accusing him of "moral harassment"[c][31] and other infringements of French employment law. Branco denied the allegations; the case is due to be heard in October 2023.[32]

Questions of integrity

In October 2016 Branco offered his services as a lawyer to the terrorist Salah Abdeslam in a letter. As he was not yet admitted to the bar and therefore not legally permitted to practice law, a number of lawyers characterised Branco's actions as illegal. Branco explained that in October 2016 he had already qualified as a lawyer and could have been admitted to the bar at any time.[33] Abdeslam did not reply to the letter.[34]

Branco has used multiple identities (sockpuppets) since 2005 to embellish his own biography on Wikipedia and to settle accounts with others.[35] According to L'Express, he sent an email in 2014 to the employer of another Wikipedia editor, in which he pretended to be a Wikipedia administrator and threatened legal action.[36]

In March 2020, he was accused by Le Point of exaggerating his experience at the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs in his book Assange, the anti-souveraign.[37]

Crépuscule is Branco's most successful work, having sold more than 150,000 copies within a year of its publication[38] after having been downloaded more than 100,000 times online.[1] The book is a critique of Macron's presidency and challenges his legitimacy as a president whose election depended, in the opinion of the author, on the support of oligarchs and media barons.[39] While the book has been praised for its exploration of the networks of power in France, it has been criticised for its reliance on unsubstantiated claims.[40] It originally appeared on-line in December 2018; an expanded version, edited by journalist and writer Denis Robert, was then published in print in March 2019.[7] In 2020, he published Assange, l'antisouverain, a 489 pages biography of Julian Assange, the founder of Wikileaks.[37]
