They still have many occupied territories, colonies and still commit genocide and settlement colonies in many places. They also commit many massacres and necolonialism imperialism in africa.
France needs to be decolonized thoroughly.

who cares

The jealousy is palpable

>>212546979 (OP)
Do they actually have some shadowy power in Africa or is it a cope made by blacks to excuse their failed states?

>>212546979 (OP)
There's little cultural or racial differentiation between the demographics of France and its colonies so the whole decolonization thing is not really needful

>>212547215
This is from a speech the former president of Niger made a couple of months before being ousted (new president and former army general was being investigated for corruption but it's surely no linked to his decision to make a coup).

>>212547215
we are buying ressources from african countries while we could buy it in others countries (kazakhstan, canada) for less. Yeah giving them money at a reasonable price count as "colonization" for them.

>>212547390
>>212547407
Does France has the power to do this shadowy control thing though? I feel only Americans and small hat people have that power

The territories do not want to leave France though

If they give Mayotte independence then the shitty place of Comoros will take that

>>212548583
Probably not. Some french nationals still make money in those areas operating port operation or supermarket chains but the puppetmaster act by obscure agencies or politicians is buried and gone

>>212548665
Does France give a lot of aid to Africa to help their nations and stop them from going to France?

>>212548657
why would failed state of CUMmoros be allowed to take anything new territory

>>212548788
France gives away like 10 billion € to "development" each year and around half is for Africa

>>212548657
rightfully so, but they're still taking it

>>212549106
Comoros is such a dumbass country for wanting Mayotte like that

>>212548798
Gove mayotte back from comoros. You stole from them.
Also give indians island back to madagasar/mauritius along with reunion.
Free your carribbean colonies
Free kanaky and porinetia
Free guianha
Free miquelon

>>212549287
Whats pretty pathetic is that 2 of the 3 island in the comoros want to go back to france but the last one isnt letting them. Comoros and djibouti shouldnt have been independent on the first place

>>212549287
africans thinks more land = good. They can go through genocide to get it.

keep genociding niggers

>>212549299
Mayotte wanted to stay a part of France

>>212546979 (OP)
no frogs shouldn’t make the same mistake we did

>>212549059
Does France give this money to bribe politicians or do the politicians steal it? Because I barely see that money in effect

>>212549299
>Mayotte became an overseas department of France in March 2011 in consequence of a 29 March 2009 referendum.[29] The outcome was a 95.5% vote in favour of changing the island's status from a French "overseas community" to become France's 101st département.[30] Its non-official traditional Islamic law, applied in some aspects of the day-to-day life, will be gradually abolished and replaced by the uniform French civil code.[31] Additionally, French social welfare and taxes apply in Mayotte, though some of each will be brought in gradually.[32] Comoros continues to claim the island, while criticising the French military base there

>In recent national elections, Mayotte has been a stronghold for the right-wing populist National Rally party, and gave its presidential candidate Marine Le Pen her highest vote percentage in the 2022 French presidential election first round.[43][44]

>>212549393
Rigged referendum. Everyone even said their was dake and they kill anti colonial activist. Same in Kaнaky

>>212549468
That's what I am saying, Mayotte and other French territories want to stay a part of France

>>212549468
Rig fake referendum.
Funny that france say it is democratic when it does exactly what it accuses Russia of doing...
Westerners are hypocrites

can we rangeban that jeet posting on a luxembourg flag

>>212549453
Well as Bazoum said all the roads in Niger were from money gifted from european countries. The government can afford to pay its employees and the army thanks to gifted money. Their school system is also heavily reliant on western money

>>212549526
Is fake propaganda from NAFO online agent. Look up franceafrique and cfa. Look Caspian report yt video on frnech colonial tactic

>>212549526
Serious questions. Why can’t these people do anything? Why do they rely on aid this much? Can they progress past this stage?

>>212549583
just like that "Empire of Dust" documentary, some are competent but they will always be grabbed down by the rest. France strategy is to "coach" people there and let them work alone after but it don't work. China understood that quickly so they just bring bunch of chinese workers to do the work instead.

>>212549583
Well they are poor as shit, and the ones that are rich have better options than to stay and pay taxes there.
The government would have no chance of maintaining an army capable of rivaling jihadists without help. Those juntas traded the help from Europe for Wagner because Europe asks for guarantees in term of not killing every ethnic minority or taking bribes.

>>212549664
Does France take the competent ones, is there a brain drain in SSA?

>>212549729
Sure, most of the smart people leave as soon as they can. France, Germany, the UK, the US, wherever they're able to

>>212549767
are you black

French is locust of africa

>>212549767
Then why do a lot of them commit crime, dress like thugs and live in ghettos?

>>212549800
Its more complicated than that, you can’t make a judgement in a hurry like you just did.

>>212549729
competent ones can earn 200/month if they work hard, they can earn more here while not working at all

Why is french like this? They steal trilions from Africa.
No wonder Africa is so thankful to Russia since Russia just kicked french colonizers out of Africa and help African regain freedom

>>212549792
No, why?

>>212549913
I think theres different things at play here. First, the smart one leaving usually go to college, get a job and I don't believe they commit crime in higher proportions. But not all the migrants are "the smart ones" that get to enter western countries with a student visa. A lot are illegals, they commit petty crimes or get into alcohol or drugs and it's all downhill from here.
They live in ghettos because they want to live near big towns as its the place where they can find a job, and they let their surroundings turn to shit because a lot of them still have a third world mentality of not caring about their surroudings. A lot of criminality is commited by people born here that were not raised properly and see crime as an easy way out of poverty, or genuinely don't understand the issue with their antisocial behavior because that's how everyone behaves

>>212547390
Being a smart nigger in Africa must be pure hell

>>212549913
the one doing it are generally second/third-generations born here. They know justice is weak here and are heavily westernized (look up to american rappers as models). Some coming fresh off the boat are also criminal but in a different way.

>>212546979 (OP)
On one side I hate the french...
On the other, I love european colonialism.
It's a tough question.

>>212549722
What about other SSA countries? You’re only talking about west Africa here. Do they have a chance to proper and liveable countries or do they have the same problems

>>212547215
They 100% do.
There's a reason there's an "intervention" in Mali, and it's not because people are nice and care about the poor people there.

>>212549933
Explain it then.

>>212550315
Do they actually bring anything positive in France? Do they even work as cheap labour?

>>212550512
Its because a crisis there would drive millions more toward our shores, its not hard to understand. We didnt do "counter-coups" in all those countries, get in touch with reality

>>212550553
Well its false, for starters. The role of CFA franc is to stabilize the money supply and avoid Zimbabwe situations.

>>212546979 (OP)
This is such a shit retarded ragebait thread and of course this retarded board fell for it

>>212546979 (OP)
i recently read about french guiana on korean wiki and it was very interesting
so they have virtually no industry, just a rocket launch pad, and the whole region is supported by taxes from the mainland, i wonder what french chudbros stance on them would be? if i was ivpiter i'd force them to become independent because the taxes that go there are a waste

>>212550887
A lot of them want Mayotte to be let go. Guyana a bit less since the launch pad is quite important

>>212550887
Litterally everyone in france want all of those colonial remnant to be given independance aling with places oppressed in europe like corsica or breizh but despotic french government does not let them

>>212550594
What is going on right now is the crisis. If you just let it play out, then it would just end up like Afghanistan.

>>212550929
thanks
what about your polynesian islands, are most of you happy with them as vacation destinations?

>>212547215
The CFA Franc's much more complicated so it can't be painted in broad strokes. But from what I know, the main issue with it is that it tries to be a "one-size fits all" for all the countries in West Africa which leads to alot of issues related to their nation's economic strength and growth.

>>212551234
Like caledonia and corsica. Everyone would rather have them go independant as they want to. All of those places are too expensive so most people wouldnt mind if all of those oversea olaces would go independant

i really wish we stopped the cfa and gave all overseas territories independence
they would become haiti on steroids and we would save billions and billions, and they would cry about it for 100 years probably like "waaaahhh they abandoned us"
lmao
by god that would be so satisfying, i am a diehard dom tom independentist

>>212551920
Also corsica, brittany normandy ,savoia provenzza, nizza and euskadi.

>>212552240
lmao i'm normand everybody here thinks independence is a bad joke
even caen is such a joke everybody supports the psg at this point, it was already a joke before but since mobutu boght it w are good for amateur league
bretons are clowns by the way
anyways just get out of here with this bullshit

>>212550976
>>212551753
so all of france's overseas territories are being held against the will of the people on the mainland huh
