Sarkozy conviction ‘has not made him a pariah’ among French right

One of Sarkozy’s sons, Louis, called for a rally on Tuesday morning in support of his father in the high-end Paris neighbourhood where the former French president lives. “There are more police and journalists here than people [rallying] in support of Sarkozy,” said FRANCE 24 journalist, reporting from the scene. “His conviction doesn’t seem to have made him a pariah, at least when it comes to the right or centre-right parties in France,” she added.
