Baku-APA. France’s former leader Nicolas Sarkozy says that if elected president in 2017, he will not go for another term in 2022, APA reports quoting Sputnik.
"I'll be 67 at the end of this second term, if, hypothetically, the French entrust it to me. That would be the time to thank France for all these years devoted to its service," Sarkozy said during Thursday debates aired on BFMTV.
Meanwhile the main rival of Sarkozy, France’s former prime minister Alain Juppe, turned 71 earlier this year. Aside from Juppe and Sarkozy, five other candidates from France’s right-wing parties have been registered for the primaries, which will be held on November 20-27.
The first round of the French presidential elections is scheduled for April 23, 2017.
