The appeal proceedings in the long-running Libya campaign financing case against former French president Nicolas Sarkozy are entering their final stretch, RFI English reported.
Sarkozy, who served as French president, has been the central defendant throughout the affair, which concerns allegations of illegal Libyan funding for his presidential campaign. RFI described the conclusion of the case as decisive for his legacy in French public life.
The outlet characterised Sarkozy as having played multiple roles in French politics — president, campaigner and political disruptor — making the outcome of the appeal significant beyond the legal verdict itself.
RFI English did not specify a date for the final ruling.
