💨 Abstract

France's former President Nicolas Sarkozy has been stripped of his Legion of Honor medal following his convictions for corruption and influence peddling. The decision, announced on June 15, 2025, aligns with the rules of the Legion of Honor. Sarkozy, who served from 2007 to 2012, has faced multiple legal cases, including one where he was sentenced to wear an electronic monitoring bracelet.
