“Of course, I don’t want to interfere in France’s internal affairs, but then France shouldn’t interfere in Georgia’s internal affairs either. No one here is an easy target,” Georgian Parliament Speaker Shalva Papuashvili wrote on Facebook.

The judge convicting Le Pen of misappropriating EU funds also gave her a four-year prison sentence – two years of which are a suspended sentence and two which will be served under home detention. She received a 100,000-euro ($108,200) fine.

French far-right leader Marine Le Pen was banned from running for public office for five years after being convicted on Monday of embezzlement, a political watershed that effectively ruled her out of the 2027 presidential race.
