Sarkozy fights against judgment: Appeal to the European Court of Justice!

A storm moves over France! The highest authority in the country, the cassation courtyard, confirmed the conviction of former President Nicolas Sarkozy on Wednesday for corruption and influence. A judgment that shakes the political landscape!

Sarkozy, who was at the head of France from 2007 to 2012, was found to have been found to have attempted to captivate a judge and to obtain secret information about an investigation into his campaign financing in 2007. A scandal that keeps the nation in suspense!

The details of the conviction

The punishment? A three -year prison sentence, of which two years were suspended! Instead of sitting behind bars, Sarkozy now has to wear an electronic surveillance device. A judgment that seems like a slap in the face of justice for many!

"I will respect the decision of the cassation courtyard," said Sarkozy's lawyer Patrick Spinosi. But the former president has already forged plans: he wants to contest the judgment before the European Court of Human Rights! "Unfortunately, this could lead to a conviction against France," warned Sarkozy on the platform X. He also emphasizes: "I am clearly innocent!"

a shadow over the political career

But that's not the end of the story! Sarkozy faces other accusations of corruption. Next year he will be on trial for alleged illegal financing of his presidential election campaign in 2007. It is said that he received funds from the Libyan government. If he is convicted, he threatens up to 10 years in prison!

An unprecedented case in French history: Sarkozy is only the second president who was convicted of corruption. His predecessor Jacques Chirac was convicted in 2011, four years after leaving office. A dark chapter for French politics!

The question remains: How will this scandal affect public perception and the political future of France? The nation watches spellbound while the events continue to develop!
