France’s highest court has upheld former President Nicolas Sarkozy’s corruption conviction, sentencing him to a year under electronic monitoring. Facing additional legal challenges, Sarkozy plans to appeal to the European Court of Human Rights. He is also set for another trial in January 2025 regarding alleged illegal financing from Libya for his 2007 campaign.
