From a Debate
on TRTworldHD. They said Macron is being nasty to get the Le Pen voters to his side. [‘Crimes of colonial France’ The immediate recall of Algeria’s ambassador from France for “consultations” was announced on Saturday in a statement from the Algerian presidency. The moves also come amid tension over a French decision to sharply reduce the number of visas it grants to citizens of Algeria, Morocco and Tunisia. “Following remarks that have not been denied, which several French sources have attributed by name to [Macron], Algeria expresses its categorical rejection of the inadmissible interference in its internal affairs,” the statement said, adding the French comments were “an intolerable affront” to Algerians who died fighting French colonialism. “The crimes of colonial France in Algeria are innumerable and fit the strictest definitions of genocide,” it said. French daily Le Monde reported that Macron made critical remarks about Algeria during a meeting on Thursday with French Algerian descendants of the Harkis, Algerians who fought on the French side during Algeria’s war of independence. According to Le Monde, Macron said Algeria was ruled by a “political-military system” and described the country’s “official history” as having been “totally re-written” to something “not based on truths” but “on a discourse of hatred towards France”.] https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2021/...or-from-france Also [Paris massacre: 60 years on, France must face its colonial past For years, the official death toll of the 1961 massacre was only three. Nowadays, historians agree that at least 48 people were killed by French police on that night, although many believe the death toll was well over 100.] https://www.aljazeera.com/opinions/2...-colonial-past Last edited by arista; 18-10-2021 at 02:22 PM. |
