Sorry but Mayotte is a completely different story than New-Caledonia, Mayotte residents themselves asked for "Operation place nette". The people of Mayotte are not asking for independance and they voted yes for départementalisation in 2009 at 95% !

Agreed. New caledonia's indigenous population voted to leave France, but the foreign settlers which account for 60 percent of the new caledonia population voted for the island to remain a french territory. If non-indigenous residents should leave because the kanaks , who are a minority group in their own country, demanded, then the Australians, new Zealanders, Canadians and Americans should also leave their birth countries because the indigenous minorities don't want their foreign presence.

The fact that most overseas regions of France are voting on average for Lepen in the last election says a lot about their desire to stay in France while keeping new immigrants out. It also shows that they clearly aren’t asking to gain independence, which Lepen would most likely refuse, as would most of the political right wing parties in France. This video, at least admits that the referendums show this absence of desire for independence. But it still hints at the fact that it is what is desired by the population of these non metropolitan regions. The left wing press likes to do so too, in a far more pronounced fashion. I hope you guys continue to strive for objectivity, and avoid showing that you are a left leaning media, despite it being true.

And in 2013 the latest data available for New Caledonia and Saint Pierre and Miquelon had the highest GDP per capita in all of France at 39,376 and 42,356 USD respectively, only surpassed by greater Paris region of Ille de France

Well... That's a huge biased and incomplete video you posted there. Mayotte riots happened because people wanted to stop Comores's massive migration by ending the birth citizen right (which was voted and agreed by the government) New Caledonia riots emerged because the separatists don't recognise any other ethnicities living there nor the will of the majority with the referendums. The "I'm not Santa Claus" sentence of Macron is out of context : he said that to underline that he didn't want to make any false promises as the majority of the planned budget was for Education. (Poor choice of words and bad bahaviour anyway) Regarding Africa, France is the perfect scapegoat with its colonial past to justify anything happening. Take into account that the troops in Mali were there because the past government asked for help to face the jihadists marching on the capital. They withdrew after the putsch and the ones remaining in Cote d'ivoire, Sénégal or Gabon are about to do the same as the will of the government is to build new partnerships away from what did our ancestors.

Does their vote count?". This is how the real world looks, not ideology. Not to mention others questions that come from your own comment alone - what is this section of the international law that specifically allows AN ETHNIC portion of the population to "be decolonized"?

He abruptly stops her and tells his mother he is French now and that she needs to call him Jacque. She proceeds to beat the shit out of him and reminds him that he is Syrian and his name is Abdul. She also tells him to wait and see what his father thinks when he arrives. Upon arrival, and finding out, his father beats the shit out of him and reminds him that he is Syrian and his name is Abdul.

France is too smart to do that but in practice this is what they do by geographically redistricting the electoral zones to encompass cities where there are many descendants of non-white immigrants (who are french born) with larger geographic areas where there are only whites de facto neutralizing the vote of descendants of immigrants. The USA does the same to neutralise the black vote in many states. FYI to vote in France you must be either french or european a non european can't vote even if he lived in France all his life!

Ascension and Tristan da Cunha South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands. British Virgin Islands. South Africa:Saint Helena. Europe: Gibraltar. Oceania: Pitcairn Islands.

They have chosen to remain with France several times now. They demanded to delay the last referendum for a "year of grief" which they... Did not respect themselves because they voted in the Presidential elections less than one year later. That was just a ploy to try to delay the process endlessly so they would never have to admit defeat. And without their boycott, the odds are that the vote would easily go against independence anyway. Additionally, the riots aren't from all natives, just a small portion of violent extremists who live in isolated clans.
