- Emmanuel Macron says he will delay reforms that sparked days of deadly riots in the faraway French territory of New Caledonia.
The French President flew nearly 17,000 kilometers from Paris to the archipelago, which lies east of Australia. At least six people have died in more than a week of violence over plans that would allow more French residents of New Caledonia to vote in local elections. President Macron said he would take stock of the situation within a month.

New Caledonia should be free from colonialism occupation!
LOL. How's the weather in Moscow Vlad?
Why Vlad? Can't people speak about this topic without being accused of as a Russian or Chinese
@@Harry-ej9qihow's the view underneath macron's shoes?
They've already had 3 referendums on independence and the majority have voted 'no'. This is a militant minority.
@@sachinshantharam325u do get that this is about a voting reform giving citizens living there for 30 years a vote?
Not taking away votes from the locals.
The sad truth is the locals lost the majority even with france saying that immigrants from the last 30 years dont get a vote and thats why they are angry. They want to leave but the majority doesnt want to leave france. They had three votes and lost all of them
Pretty funny: both the police and macron flew in almost on the same plane 😂😂. Shake each other’s hand and fly back to France😂😂
Saw no local born people shaking hands with Macron in this video.
You don't shake your master's hand. They need to boot him
@@christopherw4527 Yeah I see Xi and Putin shaking regular people's hands all the time
@@Anthony-db7cs No you don't.
@@Anthony-db7cs No, no you don't. Putin hides and will only come out randomly when surrounded by two security layers.
The local people boycotted a referendum on the status of the island, leaving everybody else to vote to stay with France.
Free Caledonia! End colonialism!!
They are only going to delay this for as long as the olympic games are around.
Just Boycott Paris Olympic Game
They already had an election and chose to stay with France for the finance France gives' The Kanaks wants independence but also want the money. they can not have both .
France is for France, New Caledonia is for Kanack
'kanack and europeans'. there, i fixed it for you
@@hot_ice_e1ite46 As long as you live under their rules while there, sure. Same as you would expect them to act in your country.
@@A1Kirazz what are their rules exactly? You can't vote if your skin is white? Seems racist no?
@@A1Kirazz what are their rules exactly? You can't vote if you are white? Also the kanak people only make up 40% of the population. So why should 60% of the population live under the tyranny of the 40%?
@Andy-ck6dq what are their rules exactly? You can't vote if you are white? Also the kanak people only make up 40% of the population. So why should 60% of the population live under the tyranny of the 40%?
A colony is still taken for granted under the mask of democracy?
Okay, so what do you think will happen if france leaves?
China WILL move in .
They're citizens and have a much higher quality of life than if they were just a random Pacific Island. They just don't want ethnic French to be able to have better voting representation.
they are lucky they still been colonized.they just want more. I remember there was news month ago 2 nearby island 1 vote for remain in france, 1 vote for independence. Then now those jokers try to go to France territory as immigrants.
@@Anthony-db7csSometimes, some of you Westerners think we are fools. Pretending to forget that you are colonizing the people of New Chaledona
Yes In racist France
Once the land belonged to indigenous people, then looters came from Europe, in this case, France. Next, the people of the land do not own the land. They just exist as "indigenous minority" group.
Down down with occupation.
Free New Caledonia.
Free Palestine.
Free Julian Assange.
Support for the indigenous people of New Caledonia from Bangladesh 🇧🇩.
They exist as full French citizens
Delay reforms but not to scrap them. Imperialism alive and kicking still.
time to get rid of macroni for good
A Kanak leader said that France was able to maintain peace with the Kanaks for 36 years. This peace ended with the new policies introduced by Macron. France and Macron have not been honest brokers with the Kanaks and fueled the flames of revolt. Macron needs to swallow his ego and undo the damage he caused.
Kanak wants to be overrepresented which is undemocratic. They can either follow democratic rules or destroy their island's economy and future.
France is back with the BS again
Boycott Paris Olympic Game
I like how Macron personally greeted some members of the security forces.
Flying 17.000 km from your country claiming that Island belongs to you. Laughable now i understand why those people are saying enough is enough
Macron is having a blast all the way. A walking calamity.
French colonialism must come to an end!
They keep voting to stay and the losing side keeps throwing hissy fits
See that giant continent that's classified as a country and the relatively huge island next to it? Pretty sure the British inhabitants aren't indigenous there. Planning on ending that too?
@@Magneticvortex-kk4gb I wish, but it's too late for that. Let's focus on the issues we can solve.
@@Magneticvortex-kk4gb Those islands never had indigenous habitants
Fair game
@@Bjorngrim74 They also keep changing the rules for a favorable outcome, hence the riots.
But colonies didn’t were dismissed after WWII?
Down with colonisation!
Slava Caledonia 👍❤
I wouldnt believe the franch if I was a kanak
New Caledonia is full of important minerals for Green Tech. 10% of the world's Nickel supply. French Consortiums have mining interests on the island. That's why no independence.
Sure, let China step in and develop the island while stripping its resources!
They were given multiple referendums for independence and all of them were won by the remainders. Now Kanaks want to gain more by force which is not going to do them any good.
5.8% for production and yeah, you can't round up that to 10%. Looks like even less of a percent using reserves.
2022 figures are 190k / 3.3m = 5.8% of production that year, and less than 7% of reserves. Reserve numbers are rounded, so % of reserves is actually lower, this is benefit of doubt.
2023 figures are 230k / 3.6m = 6.4% of production, and 7.1m reserves which is about 5.4% of reserves.
Also note that Nickel production doesn't have a very high value, it's basically being dumped on the market by Indonesia via Chinese direct investments, so it's not really of "strategic" importance to France (there are just too many alternatives). Those reserves are also what is feasible to extract, so e.g. US figures are influenced by higher wages.
You have no idea what you're talking about. NC nickel is barely profitable and the industry is propped up by the french taxpayer for the benefit of the NC people. If France leaves, all the NC nickel companies will leave and chinese ones will take over. NC will also go bankrupt in the process.
France must return Clipperton to Mexico
No, to the Native people!
That was an excellent analysis, thanks.
I wonder if Micron shook hands with any Kanaks?
Let New Caledonia be free from France!
And ruled by China
"All power to the people."
European Caledonians are people too and they lived on that island for 100s of years. They'll vote wether u like it or not 🙂
Kanack indigenous people dont give up....keep fighting...Macron is not be trusted...
West's Hypocrisy - Of the people, by the people, for the people
I don't see the hypocrisy in this
Macron wants to expand voting rights to the descendents of europeans who have been living there for over 2 generations now. You telling me if you are a white guy born in New Caledonia you shouldn't have the right to be a full citizen and vote? Seems racist no?
Of the people, by the people, for the people. Doesn't matter kanak or white.
Whats the hypocrisy? The majority wants to remain in France, 3 democratic elections says so.
He's trying to save face is all
In the meantime Macron wants to send troops to liberate Ukraine, why not liberate the Kanaks!
Ahh Putin fan :)
@7:27 This guy didn't at all explain why France wants to keep New Caledonia. This guest/source sux.
Sadly it won't happen france is invested in lithium mining at the ocean bottom
Not just delay but you must give indigenous people double or triple vote for each of them.
I didn’t understand anything
Free New Caledonia!
Free donuts, oh gosh, the Kanak criminals burnt the donut shops operated and owned by Kanaks to the ground. There is no honour in these criminal actions.
Ruled from France....honestly!
The problem is not the electoral system... the problem is that the native population has no chance of economic advancement... they remain poor.😖
Ohhh poor wolf crying for the sheep ❤️❤️❤️. I really feel sad. What would the world do without the French prosperity and perfume 🥹🥹🥹
Free Caledonia
"Reforms"? To the locals' disadvantage? The days of colonialism are over.
Not a single non-white face at the airport welcome ceremony. That speaks volumes.
Correction: It's not french territory. It's french colony.
It is just wrong what you say.
Correction its the other way around. fact
It is french occupation
No more colonies
Rioters wont accept 3 failed independence referenda even when a fifth of the population is disenfranchised to help the pro independence vote. Disgraceful and pathetic.
Democracy 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Macron has a white tiny flag in his hands.
Has macaroons considered airdrops?😂
Where is the indigenous people
New Caledonia SHOULD be Free , but the more amazing thing is that it's only a Popular cause now , because it's fashionable at the moment.Only proves that people are like the weather , they change like the wind
I’ll have to read more about this …
Or You could watch BBC France 24 DW CNN CNBC and with Kate Jaebou. For unbiased NEWS 😂😂😂
Can he stay there? We don't want him coming back to France...
Same Europeans crying about immigrants!
the hypocrisy of the french motto:
Liberté, égalité, fraternité
If Macaroni doesn't want to give New Caledonia it's freedom from France at least give them the option for self-governance.
All residents are French citizens, and Residents of 10 years plus
are stakeholders in the island economy. They should be able to vote.
Agree
its not asking for much is it. giving a special group extra voting rights doesnt seem to right
@@interdictr3657 basic, not ‘extra’
The underlying issue is the lack of social programs for the indigenous people , not the colonialist history and current economic conditions.
They are French not New Caledonian
I am sure the Kanaks don't mind sharing as long as they rule there ancestral Lands like all Native Indigenous people of Australia Canada America New Zealand Hawaii New Caledonia to name a few. Its all about resources and power.
Facts
@@cavebabybezerkers That is the Facts!!
Those arguing independence are probably unaware of how dependent New Caledonia is on France, France gives them about 2bn EUR a year in income, which is about a fifth of their GDP.
The country would be substantially worse off without France.
Spot on, and I think the consistent ‘no’ results in the independence referendums reveal that most Caledonians understand this.
When cowardness and fear exchange vows, politicians emerge. And it is up to the people to bend over, keep them in power, and clean up their mess.
The politician. “After the facts, I reiterated convincingly what the people wanted to hear, and when enough people said: Boy, he is right, I got the job.”
Locals are lazy
The elephant in the room. Everyone over there knows that
So lazy people set fire to shops and bring the country to a standstill?
If non-locals don't like a country and its traditions then they are free to leave, not harass those that have roots.
oops, another slave rebellion? the west agrees: it's NOT a colony! 😆
If France President Macron can be upset with Israel 🇮🇱 Occupation on Palestine 🇵🇸. Why is France Occupation still in New Caledonia 🇳🇨.
La liberté ou la mort!!!!
The Chinese and Russians will look for any reason to create mischief.
They do not need an excuse, Macron is managing to create mayhem his own.
There very good at showing the West its hypocrisy...and then magnifying it....10x
Way too white wash French guilt
Pelosi has revived the word "Insurrection" and given it new, if spurious, life:
What is in the best interest of both the people of New Caledonia and France? Would New Caledonia gaining its indepdence now from France be the answer? Or, would the loss of France's governance and financial support make life harder for the people of New Caledonia? I favor independence; but we have to remember total independence too soon may cause more problems then it would solve, and so should be done gradually, and carefully, IMHO.
All Pacific countries that went independent are even worse than before.
The majority of people in France want New Caledonia to stay part of France. The majority of the people in New Caledonia want to stay part of France. But a violent minority of people are opposed to democracy and are probably provoked by agents from Russia and China.
Highly likely worse off since France is responsible for a few billion EUR income, gives them ~20% of their GDP every year.
The independence of Kanaks would create unrest and instability in the rest of Oceania.
Looks like french colonialism is in trouble in New Caledonia and the Sahel. And Emmanuel wanting to send his troops to Ukraine...
Down with colonialism
Monsieur. 180 😂
UN must intervene to stop 🛑 France 🇫🇷 crime against people
UN ? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 same UN went to Iraq or Belgrade
Caledonia should be given freedom
19. juni... hinter uns marschiert deutschland...
Has France got still colonies?
No. This is an overseas department. Like Hawai and US
It's a colony. They have 10 percent of world's nickel France's wants the resources
New Caledonia is Kanakered. Time the French granted independence
Western style never gone number 1 French, this is not democratic
The kanaks can't compete with the size of the French population. They will be bred out and lose their country forever. Independence is the only way to save their ancestral land. Or thousands of French will migrate to dilute Kanak power. Sad situation
Freedom to New Caledonia. Stop French imperialism.
The only answer is independence.
Europe has no place in the Pacific. There is no excuse for this.
RACIST
@@Djiejejdj I wrote “Europe”. Europe isn’t a race!
Europe is 14,000 km away. It does not belong in the Pacific.
Same for "Common Wealth"🤣💩
FREE HAWAI FREE PUERTO RICO FREE MARSHALL ISLANDS FREE DIEGO GARCIA
Still BITTER over BREXIT HUH..cry harder🤣😪
😅
It is wiser to withdraw money from Caledonia before separation .
France 🇫🇷 colonial rule should stop by this 21st century. New Caledonia 🇳🇨 belong to Kanak Peoples and they need to be free from France 🇫🇷 colonial rule
Well , if france should give independence it wouldnt get as most are french European.
Russia c
Has 17 regions that should have independence according to trolls...
Make 1 BILLION of damages and still plays victim. Crazy
I’m impressed his flew there, appropriate 👍⚜️⚜️⚜️
May New Caledonia and all overseas territories remain French for eternity.
There is nothing France on Kanaky land. France is a double tongue knight on democracy and freedom. Shame
New Caledonia it is not France territorry.
How could the French government be so insensitive and blind to the concerns of the indigenous people. Could it simply be that Paris is on the otherside of the world ?
Arrogance
Free Caledonian frome evil French, many countries was colonial by french, 🌍🌏🌎🇱🇦🙏🙏🙏
What did the previous “Decolonialism” bring to ordinary citizens?
There are lots of examples 🤔
More rich Europeans coming shouldn't be a bad thing. They aren't coming to steal the bad jobs that the indigenous are worried about losing. They're coming to retire and enjoy the weather. And they'll probably create more jobs.
thats not why bro its because its thier island and french people and vote and change thier laws in thier island????
@@angelcabeza6464 It's France's island. The indigenous should be grateful they have been allowed to live and have rights as citizens there. Now you might say "oh it's terrible that France conquered/colonized it" but it happened and in fact could have been much worse. France could have ethnically cleansed the island 200 years ago. Today this argument wouldn't exist if they had done that. It was within their power. They chose coexistence. Other conquerors could have been much worse. They should make the most of what did happen, speak French and be productive citizens.
@@cattraknoff look how virtuous we are, we didn't commit a genocide. The existence of indigenous community isn't due to French genorosity.
They are locust
I look forward to the day when France becomes an Arab majority nation!😅
Democracy is democracy. Immigrants have rights and must be allowed to vote for their interests
Democracy is democracy when it fits you and only when it fits you.
What is France doing here. Leave your former colonies alone. You have exploited them enough.
The Palestinian solution . Hold the 4 year elections every 14 years😂
Macron appears to aim to be the worst president of France in modern history. Not only lost Africa but also losing France!! New Caledonia is about 1,210 km east of Australia and 17,000 km from France. Then, China is fighting over having Taiwan at its border😅
Pakistan 🇵🇰 support Palestine 🇵🇸
France 🇫🇷 support Israel 🇮🇱
Salute to Pakistan 🇵🇰
France 🇫🇷 always on the wrong side of history
Free Palestine 🇵🇸
More “ peaceful protesters. “. Added to the long leftist list!
Freedom!
There are more Karnaks than Europeans there, yet they are governed by France in France. Why? Billions of dollars in Minerals making 15% of Frances GDP!
