Jean-Claude Lefort (French: [ʒɑ̃klod ləfɔʁ]; 15 December 1944 – 19 June 2024) was a French politician. He was a French Communist Party deputy from Val-de-Marne from 1988 to 2007. Beyond his legislative function, however, he also engaged in many activities relating to France's foreign affairs, and also fought for social justice, evincing solidarity with both the Palestinian people and also the Romani people.
