Violent Anti-France Protests break out in its Territory of New Caledonia | Vantage with Palki Sharma
Violent protests broke out in the French overseas territory of New Caledonia. Reports say over 50 police officers were injured and businesses and cars were burnt down. More than 80 protesters have been arrested and a curfew has been imposed in New Caledonia. The protests are in response to a new rule being debated in the French Assembly. France had frozen voting rights in New Caledonia back in 1998. This was to ensure that immigrants would not politically outnumber New Caledonia's indigenous Melanesian Kanak people. But now, France wants to undo the voting freeze, and the voting power of the indigenous Kanak people might get reduced overnight.

In contrast, millions of Indians fought for the British, who honoured their sacrifice by granting India independence.

What do you mean 'isn't'. Do understand France's economy towards its neo-nations. It's the growing minorities that want independence and they're not going to get it because the French want to expand the electorate whereas they didn't have to prior.

Stand with the people of New Celadonio from Bangladesh.
It's one thing when a colony willingly (and under NO duress) opts for its independence or to maintain its status a territory (see Puerto Rico and the USA). However when the occupying nation (France) refuses to recognize and comply with said colony's wish for independence (New Caledonia), that's quite another issue. Matters get worse with horrendous consequences all around when the occupier resorts to forcible action to squelch the independence movement. A good example, but evidently not well learned lesson, is France's post WWII forcible reacquistion of Vietnam--> French Indochina from Japan after Japanese capitulation! I believe French and later U.S. military action there spanned roughly 30 years (1946-1975). The French return in 1946 to reclaim their "empire". They lost Laos in 1949 and Cambodia in 1953 but insisted on maintaining Vietnam. There, they were defeated by Viet-Minh forces at Dien Bien Phu in 1954. Then the U.S. began its "intervention" policies in the 1950s to address the rise of "communism". It all culminated later on to the withdrawal of U.S. forces and the Fall of Saigon in 1975 (to NVA & VC forces) allowing Vietam to reunify and to gain its independence. France should really play it smart and give New Caledonia its independence without bloodshed and intrigue and maintain positive relations not vitriol. Why resort to blood shed and destruction to satisfy foolish and short sighted international prestige?

What to expect from poor puerto ricans when rich texans are exploited and intimidated the same way. That's result of propaganda where people live in slavery thinking they are free.

Economic considerations- it's the main reason why a lot of New Caledonians are hesitant of breaking away from France.

We'l start doing that when we apology for all Europeans taken as slave long before they had colonies. Then the Christians wants Constantinople back with reparations and all other Greek lands stolen. Reparations for Armenians, Christians of holy land and Egypt too. They have never decolonisation anything they stole.
Free new Caledonia 😮😮😮
In an area many miles from France, where France could hold their Nuclear Bomb Tests!
Well done on reporting conspiracy theories. The last referendum was boycotted because the Kanaks/independenistas knew they were sure to lose based on random data polls. Of course they were going to give any reason except that for the boycott. How many times around the world have we seen dubious reasons for a group boycotting a referendum/vote they cant win

Kanak population is down from 100% to only 41 % , that looks like genocide and ethnic cleansing to me. Plus, millitary oppression, closing ports and internet at will of occuppation forces etc. If Kanaks don't fight back they will be gone from face of Earth all the while France is singing about respect of human rights and jumping on so called Olympics.
The biggest question of all, is how did France retain any colonies, despite being over-run by Germany twice in the 20th century, while the British willingly relinquished their empire??

France isn't colonizing those islands, in the last 6 years, there has been 3 independence referundums in New Caledonia, and in every single one, the majority of the population voted to stay within France. They are a part of France because they want to, not because they are forced to.

What is France really thinking????
Which language do they teach there in schools? French, of course. Why? Because France occupied the land of the native people and says ti's a part of France. It doesn't matter how or what France calls the land of the native people. It is French colonialism. Where is the difference that matters betwen France occupying the land of native people in New Caledonia and Zionsim occupying the land of native people in Palestine besides the genocide in Palestine. Colonialism is racism no matter who, not matter where, no matter when. Yesterday I watched a YT video about a French general calling for France, Europe and the US to recolonize Africa. You can't train racists to be decent people. You can't talk racists into decency. Thsi is just another example that France is not willing to respect other people. New Caledonia is on the other side of the planet. The French had no right to claim anything there in the first place.

The french utopia where every citizen has rights to a house, energy, comfort, transport, civilized structure, etc, with a rich mind set is quite beautiful for the citizens of France. But it has to be sustained with a lot of resources, that their country doenst really have. They invented the whealty socialist utopia, that is sustainable up to now with the colonies.

The 3 referendum were all organized by France instead of a 3rd neutral party. The Kanaks should have never agreed to a referendum. They should have followed Algeria's example. The referendum were to materialize 30 years after the Kanak insurrection in 1988 which gives France the time to change the demographics profile of the colony and dilute the votes of the indigenous people. France has a lot of tricks up its sleeves when it comes to holding on to territories that is not theirs.
