Nicolas Sarkozy, former President of France, has been found guilty of corruption and influence peddling by a Paris court and an appeals court in 2023. The convictions were upheld by France's highest court, the Court of Cassation, in a decision issued on Wednesday.

    1. I have no intention of complaining. But I am not prepared to accept the profound injustice done to me.
    2. I want to once again state that I am clearly innocent.
    3. My determination is total in this case as in all others.
    4. I will assume my responsibilities and face all the consequences.
    5. The challenge that I will be bringing to the European Court of Human Rights may, alas, lead to a condemnation against France.
