New Caledonia unrest: French forces launch 'major operation'
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 18 май 2024
- French forces have launched what they're calling a 'major operation' to clear roads linking New Caledonia's capital to its main airport.
At least six people have been killed and hundreds injured in the French Pacific territory in the past week.
The mayor of the capital Noumea says the city is besieged.
Thousands of indigenous Kanak people have been protesting against changes to local election rules.
Critics say the reforms favour French nationals.
Jimmy Naouna is a Member of the Kanak and Socialist National Liberation Front Political Bureau.
He says the chaos that has unfolded over the past week is regrettable but they will continue to demand their independence from France.

How is it that France supports Taiwan independence but oppresses New Caledonia’s??? Hypocrisy at its best.
New Caledonia was offered 3 referendums by France lately. They voted 3 times to stay part of France
@@gregoiregandon5728 It's sham
@gregoiregandon5728 by how much? That matters.
About 60 % to remain part of France and 40% for independence.
It’s a totally different situation! Not comparable !
The French forces should go back to their barracks and full independence be given to the people of Caledonia.
Lol why? They voted to stay with France. Why give power to this minority?
And what would you know?
Oh so you advocate a continuation of arson and murder? Not very good for any country.
And what????? China will come instantly, and create a huge military base in front of Australia.......this is not a good idea i think
@@drfunkestein what utter nonsense, the Chinese know they have no place in New Caledonia.
the world has no place for colonisation. Free New Caledonia. Support from Papua New Guinea.
Free? This is an extremist group trying to seize power after the people voted against them. The caled
Their exploitative mindest is still alive!!!
Looking at the situation in Papua I would not refer to it as a fine example of independence!
Free New Caledonia from Portugal!
There's no such thing as Papua New Guinea. Its all Indonesia.
Carribean islands, like Jamaica and trinidad,which are smaller than new Caledonia, are fully independent over 60 years. So, new Caledonia can do it.
I'm Jamaican..we are not a republic yet, our head of state is still the King of England
@@jevonbrown1778 Welsh (Nigerian parentage) same here but we don't pay much attention to ceremonial overlord our dear King Charles.
Britannia rules the waves.
🚎 And some are not. Guadeloupe. St. Maarten , and Puerto Rico. In New Caledonia, the population is French and Kanak. The French have held plebiscites and the majority has voted to remain French. Why? Well, just like in the Caribbean, being part of France is a good deal.

This is something that cannot happen in 2024. What is the UN doing, and why are the liberal democracies not saying anything about this? It's frustrating.
A minority that lost three referendums resorts to killing, and you want the UN to approve?
They voted no for independence 3 times
Not only were there 3 votes where the answer was no to independence (the majority of voters were Kanak), but what's more, do you believe they live on reserves? They live like any French person, have the same rights, they have priority over high-ranking administrative positions, they have free medical aid without even having to work while the rest of the population is not entitled to it, and much more, they are very far from being an oppressed people. Additionally, don't forget that there are also families of other ethnicities (not just French) who have lived there for several generations, and they should abandon their native land? The question is much more complicated than it seems.
People are looting and burning businesses, people have died. Don't you think people need safety and food?

They should just give them the Independence, they want and demand and now fighting for independance. Freedom for our Pacific Family.
@nono-ri9bt you are going off topic mate
Thanks for giving a microphone to one of Kanak's representatives. Their perspective is often quite hidden in the media. There is only one way, restart to talk and listen to each other as it was done with the Nouméa Accords and New Caledonia can start moving forward to indépendance once more.
May the Kanak free themselves from the colonization of France. I lived there for 3 years and I believe the people of Kanak heritage have suffered oppression at the hands of colonization. In this day and age, we should have learned from the mishaps of the past. May freedom Rhein. Such beautiful people… and their island is amazing.
Freedom through arson and murder is a fantasy. New Caledonia followed an agreed path with three referendums and independence was rejected in each case. Now the authorities are rounding up the promoters of violence and they will be charged and judged for their crimes. New Caledonia will now follow standard democratic processes where one citizen = 1 vote. Peace will return and criminals will go to trial in the courts, as is the case in any democratic country. France will continue to financially support New Caledonia.
France need to pack up and leave New Colodonia the land belong to the kanak people not france nationals Independence now now now!!!
We don't have leaders in Africa now these are our brothers and sisters who are being oppressed and there is no African leader who have spoken anything about it😢
French-speaking African leaders are puppets of France, and as such, are complicit in the french mess in New Caledonia
New Caledonia is NOT IN ÁFRICA!
@@arvinroidoatienza7082 Thank you "Captain Obvious". Clearly it is not in Africa but let's not pretend these are not black people. F's. Black men need to unite and step up together. They are tied by the fact that their people have been colonised and abused. Don't be obtuse.

Let freedom ring from America.
American troops let good rememberings in the NC .. Freedom between white and black natives . Economic developments and friendly people together . So welcome USA now .. We are fed up of the old french colonialism
New Caledonians need help.

A bunch of mime artists with white face paint toting baguettes AKA French Faguettes
Rare New Caledonia & Azerbaijan W
Azerbaijan is pro USA .. SO NC will be independent with a partnership with USA .. Not so bad for me ..
How on earth in the 21st century can a country be ruled from overseas ( France)? This is so disheartening. The French should leave the people to decide for themselves, France should know that her foreign policy towards her colonies is not welcomed again period.
The French colonized half of Africa through looting, war crimes & ethnic cleansing. No one (not even those who profit from French occupation ) wants the French to rule over them.
They did let them decide. New Caledonians voted to remain twice, then there was a 3rd vote but the independence side knew they would lose again so decided to boycott (using COVID as an excuse even though it was December 2021 and the last one which they didn't boycott was in Oct 2020) and thus lost again.
@shehannanayakkara4162 what do you expect when the French allowed French citizens to vote. Since when do countries allow non citizens to vote in their election. Typical colonisers attitude
@@ali1981 Only people who live in New Caledonia were allowed to vote. Is that a bad thing?

La France n'a pas apprise la leçon ALGÉRIENNE !!!!
Idiots and intellectual dwarfs don't learn anything, 😂😂😂😂😂
LOL I remember, "l'Algerie c'est la France!"
And they were humiliated by Vietnam.
Un conseil, évite de regarder des médias aussi orientés... Je vie sur place,la situation est pas ce que les gents à l'étranger pensent... Labêtise à été de vouloir dégeler le corp électoral, ce qui a mis le feu aux poudres, mais quand le ministre est venu sur place pour discuter avant cette décision et voir si c'était la chose a faire ou non, ou si il vallais mieux faire autre chose, ils ont juste refusé de lui parler, et une fois que la question du vote s'est retrouvé à l'assemblé nationnal, les indépendentistes on,t attaqué, mis le feu a une grande partie des entreprises, mis la population en ddanger, ensuite la france à déplacer des troupes, pas l'inverse.
Maintenant les indépendentistes demandent le retrait des troupes, mais de leur côté ils continuent a s'en prendre a la population qui n'a rien demandé !
What are French colonists doing 16,800 km away from France? Westerners who ask what they are doing in Cyprus, 60 km away from Turkey, are extremely hypocritical. As Turks, we stand by New Caledonia's struggle for independence. French imperialists, get out of Caledonia.
france is a major power...azerbaijan is possibly a regional power. if i was france, i wouldnt even admit to azerbaijan getting involved in new caledonia affairs...doesnt really help france in its attempts to be a leader within europe and globally
this
France may be a great power... although it capitulated to the 3rd Reich... it's just that France has a cowardly and insignificant president
France should give independence to Kanaks now and have a good relationship or risk becoming an enemy forever 😁
A "special military operation"!
sounds like russia 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
1. New Caledonia was included in the UN decolonisation list in 1946. This was reconfirmed by the UN Decolonisation Committee on 28 October 1987.
The French response on both occasions was to claim it was an integral region of France.
But when it came to the EU, France claimed New Caledonia was NOT an integral region of France. NC does not use the Euro, it uses the Pacific Franc. New Caledonia does NOT vote for MEPs, and is NOT represented in the European Parliament. The Schengen open border agreement does NOT apply to New Caledonia. Kanaks have no rights to work in the EU.
2. The French Socialist Government of Mitterand promised and prepared a bill in April 1985 to move New Caledonia towards independence by 1986 through a referendum. This did not take place.
3. At the 1988 Paris talks the Matignon Accord was reached, providing the broad framework of a ten year transition plan leading to the decolonisation of New Caledonia. This did not take place and let to riots.
5. Between 1990 and 2013, the population of New Caledonia grew from 169,000 to 256,000. During that 23 year period the New Caledonia birthrate dropped from 17.53 per thousand to just 8.72 per thousand, almost exactly half. This means means that most of the 87,000 population increase were external arrivals, mostly from France.
6. By the time of the 1998 electoral embargo the population of NC had risen from 169,000 (1990) to 210,000 (2000). The birthrate on the island had fallen from 17.53 per thousand to 15.25 per thousand. Most of those extra 40,000 arrivals were French voters.
7. The infamous electoral embargo applies to arrivals post 1998. Retuning arrivals are not subject to that rule. If you were in NC pre 1998 you can vote. It only applies if you never set foot in NC before 1998.
Freedom to be who they are with no one ruling over them is what they want.. give it to them and things will calm down...
France has to leave New Caledonia, the people are tired of your imperialism. Pacific Islands Forum needs to stand behind their people.
Free Palastein and free Caledonia

Arson and murder are not the answer, nor is Azerbaijan part of the solution...
Man... They do not suffer, they are not oppressed or parked in reserves... They have lived like everyone else for years... It is not for nothing that the question of independence, 3 times the answer was no, and the majority of those who voted were Kanak...
Let them be free

New Caledonia should be independent.
The people of New Caledonia don't agree with you.
@@petraravn5421 Yes they do. The vast majority of the indigenous Kanaks want independence but because France insists the French settlers vote with them on the referendums, they lose every time.

Free Caledonia, Caledonia
The occupiers must lose, the French once said that Algeria and Vietnam were France, there were also many French living there and they fled. France should grant independence to New Caledonia and organize voting, it's ridiculous, they are the occupiers there, it's the land of the Kanaks.🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨✌️
Sure, sure. Get back to us once the Americans all get on a big boat and go back to Europe or wherever. And let's not forget the Russians, Chinese, Canadians, Australians, New Zealanders, and all the Arabs while we're doing this.
Free New Caledonia
Hands off 🇦🇿🇳🇨✌️
Independent New-Caledonia already exists, it's called Vanuatu, and they're 10 times poorer than New-Caledonia lol.
Azerbaijan & Turkiye supporting New Caledonia is surprising..
Not really. They are opposing France because France is supporting Armenia in its fight against genocidal Turks. Azeris ethnically cleansed Armenian populated Artsakh after imposing a 9 month long siege in this region with 120,000 Armenian population who lived on that historically Armenian land for over 2 millennia. Turkey to date is denying they exterminated 1.5 million Armenians in early 20th century. So much for “freedom supporting” Turks and Azeris.
We don't? We didn't even know they existed before the French pointed their effeminate fingers at us.
We have tolerated Macron for a long time... he is a disgrace to France ... a little later we will free France from this clown
ONU has a decolnise program for West Papua? There is urgent.
If France leave New caledonia (where Kanaks are French citizen) and where are leaving différent communities ) it will be chaos and total collaps of économies : that France that supplies everything ! There were three referendum that want France stay There and the Kanaks did vote too : this is stupid to pretend New caledonia is same situation as Gaza or French Algeria 60 years ago ... If WE accept Kanaks as natives décide for ALL in NC , French from France will décide as natives they will décide for ALL in France because WE are fed UP with masse immigration !
Let the Kanaks rule their own country
People want their independence
China or others, want the control......that's more the reality.....
@nono-ri9bt This is exactly what the French government wants to do. restore voting rights to ALL N.C. residents and that is exactly what the rioters are against. the French government organized 3 successive referendums on independence and 3 times the Caledonians voted against independence and to remain a French territory. last time at 80%. N.C. is not a colony and Caledonians are free to choose their destiny and they chose it. it is not a minority to impose its point of view through violence. in democracy it is not the one who speaks the loudest who is right. it's the majority
Not the majority of them......sorry.
call them french occupational forces just like the IDF of israel.
Ah, but these people are French citizens, they can vote, unlike Palestinians in the Occupied Territories. Try again, Kremlin bot.
Knowing the cunning and cruel French, I am very worried about the honest and patient Kanaks.
Freedom for the Kanakas.
They dont want independance. Riot leader are just pay many millions by azerbaijan for say that. Whole kanak vote no for independance.
@@Christophe-pl5xu This means that the Kanaks have a reason to agree to everything just to become the masters of their lands. And you democratic thieves have no right to condemn Azerbaijan. While Azerbaijan was seeking justice, France and Canada, together with Armenian separatists, were mining gold in the internationally recognized territories of Akherbaijan (Karabakh). Research the issue before you write anything.
@nono-ri9bt For 20 years, France mined gold, supporting the separatists. What does it have to do with ethnic cleansing, which did not happen; they voluntarily left.
@nono-ri9bt you are changing the topic. I discussed the fact that France was mining gold on foreign lands(Karabakh)
@nono-ri9bt France's support for separatists in the internationally recognized territories of Azerbaijan led to numerous casualties among Azerbaijanis.
Free Kanaky ! Free West Papua !
@nono-ri9bt we are the same we are melanesian people
France out
let these people have a referendum for their full independence
end colonialism
Mort aux envahisseurs, liberté à la Nouvelle-Calédonie.
I'm seeing many parallels here throughout history. European powers slowly losing territories to the natives that are disenfranchised and fed up with discriminatory laws. France should leave New Caledonia.
Free Indeginous people from tyrany, colonisation and imposition of imperialist ideas. Freedom for the pasifica people, freedom for our Pacific Family. Full support from Papua New Guinea
Also, Azerbaijan is supporting them I guess. Sorry Armenia, but it's for the best...

Towards a new referendum?!? No…when France first came to New Caledonia they didn’t ask for any referendum to colonise the country.
Neither did US Brasil Russia Indonesia and most parts of the world that started once through colonisation. What's your point. In the end humans is said to have started in Africa. So those so-called Colonisers were actually returning to their original land. 🤣
Hello, share for my friend if he can find financial help via this pot, following the events taking place in New Caledonia at the moment.
THANKS
None of the people involved are indigenous lol wtf are you talking about
FAKE ! They don't want anny accord !
There is a mistake early in the video, nearly all people in NC, Kanak included, are French Nationals. Citizens self declare their belonging to an “ethnic group” and as of 2019 census 24% declare themselves “European”. This percentage is decreasing. The growing groups are mixed races, South East Asians and non Kanak Melanesian. These groups are in majority opposed to independence, they do not feel that Kanak leadership is a safe option for them.
Went to NC in 2023 saw with people of all race work equally in government. Aboriginal people in Australia enjoy more social benefit than other race, but we won't let them have more government power than other, that is why we say no to The Voice referendum in 2024. Echo "do not feel that Kanak leadership is a safe option for them".

French authorities have historically expressed similar sentiments towards African nations, which have endured exploitation for generations, resulting in the loss of countless lives.

Thank yu Beijing, Moscow and Baku........ it's foreign interference.....not a problem of a so-called desire for independence......the committee in charge of these violent riots, receives funds directly from Azerbaijan, in fact Baku did not appreciate France's support for Armenia.....China interfered in a barely veiled way in the last local elections and in the referendums for independence and Moscow is playing its part too, since the support from France to Ukraine irritates it quite a bit, cause this support is very effective (Cesar cannon, armored vehicle, ammunition of all kinds, storm shadow missile and gliding bombs are provided in large quantity by France).....so I know that it's not necessarily easy to understand or obvious...but everything is said......check it out.
Please do not drag China into this. Obviously Baku is involved. Was there any Chinese flags seen among the rioters?

Is that how it works the French clean up and pay for everything I wonder if France will pay for anything after all this .I am so worried about this situation and were will the money come from out side the ones that are inferring in pushing the Kanakas to do this it is not the way of Pacific People we do not fight our own kind we sit down and talk so much rubbish about colonel times that has passed it is History hello my Brother and sister we are in 2024 WE should be civilised by now please let's say the way our Ansister taught us with dignity and Respect for others not what the out side would is trying to push in to our heads I hope they find a solution the both sides so we can live again in our beautiful Calidonie all together as one and multi colours and show the world like in Fiji were are happy people we live in Peace Love and Harmony Love and Light and may Jesus's shine his light on Caledonian people and Kanaky as one .Build this world make it a better place for you and for me and the Intior human race God bless the Islands of Caledonian and the people Amen 🕊🙏🏼💜❤😥😣🕊🙏🏼😥😣🕊🙏🏼😥😣😣
@@marlenerolland1015 thank you your message is a true message of love and reality........👍👍👍👍
Free Caledonia from colonialism
French should leave new Caledonia, Guadeloupe and all the other territories which they still call French territory, its colonial and must end now
Long live independent Caledonia. Turks support you. No to exploitation!
🇦🇿🇹🇷🇳🇨✌️✌️✌️
lol but they did vote to stay with France…he lien 🤣🤣
Very close contest. 53% pro France 47% pro independence. Delicate balance. Anything can trigger civil unrest like voting reforms
@@kamsunleong6648 he just mad…that his side can’t win pro independence..the people has spoken 3 times and they chose France…why should France listen to him
Sham referendum
Misleading reporting as usual Al Jazeera. You invited a guest with strong political bias. New Caledonia had 3 referendums for independence and the people voted to stay with France. This will always be French 🇫🇷
Very close contest. More than 45% voted for independence. So any attempt to reform the voting eligibility can trigger unrest from the 45%. Like what's happening now.
Please, you know that the third référendum had to be postponed.
Why do Kanak not allow democratic votes for ALL citizens of NC regardless of their race.
Free free colonies..
Good 🇫🇷restore order..and stop them from looting.
Lots of Commie Bots on this Channel.
The people of NC have voted THRICE through democratic vote AGAINST independence. Why cant these Kanak extremists not accept the outcome. Helloooooo
"French troops enter the country" - It's the same country. It's France. They are not entering the country.
France is in Europe. That's what the map says. It's not Frankland.
It is not France, is a colony of France!!!!!!! It is not the same country!
The people there doesn't look like france,even their location is far from france,hmmmm very weird indeed.
Caledonia is not France. It's a colonized territory
@@bobdia2608 A bit like Australia or New Zealand, then?
We should support Baku Initiative Group on the way to the independence of Kanaky-New Caledonia
Maximum peoples of this area are in favour of our beloved 💖 France only a small group of people try to make unrest & violence.
More than 45% did vote for independence. Not a small number.
@@kamsunleong6648 It's true, it's not a small number. But it's not a majority.
@@adrien5834 Let the French leave and then there will be a majority... you are manipulating the numbers
@@Khan-ln5qy Everybody is French in New Caledonia, so who do you say should leave?
@@adrien5834 Do you think Kanakas are lying? Does the UN declaration on decolonization mean nothing to you? How is France different from Russia now, killing women, children and the elderly in Ukraine?
