  • France has enforced a state of emergency, flying in hundreds of police and military reinforcements to restore order in the overseas territory of New Caledonia which has seen mass protests and riots over the past weeks that resulted in several deaths. The deadly violence erupted over a French voting reform plan that indigenous Kanaks say will dilute their voice.

      Kanaks had 3 attempts to vote for independence and lost every single one of those votes and even strategically boycotted the last vote because they knew they would lose that one as well. The irony is that these independence elections are largely rigged in their favor as well and they still lost because not only can they not convince the other minority groups, many of which have lived on the island for nearly 200 years, they can't even convince the entirety of their own people, with some Kanaks voting to remain an autonomous region of France.
