French Justice Minister's lawyer reacts at acquittal verdict

Description

Following the acquittal of French Justice Minister, his lawyer speaks of a "great satisfaction and (...) a great emotion". A French court on Wednesday acquitted France's justice minister in a conflict of interest trial that has been an embarrassment for President Emmanuel Macron's government. Eric Dupond-Moretti, a pugnacious former star defence lawyer, had in 2021 been charged with misusing his position to settle scores with opponents from his legal career. SOUNDBITE
