The youngest son of former Libyan dictator Moamer Kadhafi claims he was pressured to retract allegations about his country's funding of Nicolas Sarkozy's 2007 presidential campaign. In an exclusive interview with RFI, Saif al-Islam Kadhafi describes being approached three times to change testimony he gave to French investigators in 2018 – when he says he oversaw cash payments of $5 million to the former French president's team.
"Sarkozy has exercised pressure on me through intermediaries several times," Kadhafi told RFI in his first comments about the "Libyan financing affair" since 2011.
