I’m a French citizen and went to the French Guiana/Brazil border. Coming back into town, the gendarmes controlled my French passport and Guiana plated rental car three times whereas on the river separating both countries and with boats full of Brazilians and others crossing the whole day into French Guiana, no one gendarme could be found.

Why does France still have a colony in South America?

I mean compared to the rest of South America it is pretty rich. Geography and demographics determine that French Guiana will always be poor relative to france.

Je comprends pas pourquoi La France ne profit pas des couts bas des produits et génere des sinérgie avec le commerce régionaux , en insistant à importer tout de la métropole. Ils peuvent augmenté considérablement les salaires réels et par conséquance le niveau de vie des citoyens de Guyanne juste en ouvrant le commerce avec la région. C'est une questions de tax? Je pense pas, ces regions sont défficitaires. Les tratés commercieaux sont déja établi. La France a des traités avec la Colombie, Chili et Pérou, et celui avec le Mercosur sera signé une fois que la France aura négotier las conditions pour les produits agricoles. Cest une mésure qui coutenet rien et qui peut avoir d'impact énorme sur la Guyanne.

Franche needs to support her colonies!

Can you imagine the snakes and anaconda in the water and on land. Scarey!

What happens if the man who said it was Brazilian in reality is from another country and just got in French Guyana so police offers just took him to another countrie

Why do they import French police ,Gendarme and diplomats . Can't they recruit the locals ?

They fear losing Guiana. They fear independence of Guiana lol. They clearly know that the people hate them.

Everywhere france 🇫🇷 steps foot is a big mess
