France tentacle reach beyond country France, they have no intention of letting go, if they do that country would belly up in less than a month.

[@rosshilton]

Both France and the EU are against Israel occupying Palestine. Both France and the EU are against Russia occupying Ukraine. But France sends 1000 soldiers 22,000 km to the South Pacific to force the indigenous population to accept its rule. And the EU says nothing. Hypocrisy? Double standards? I am ashamed of France and disgusted with the EU.

Exactly, how can politicians 16960 kms away make decisions for the New Caledonian’s ? Paternalism at its most corrupt!! Do the Kanak have a say about their country or are they considered insignificant??
