as a Vietnamese, I support the independence of New Caledonia, Vietnam was the ex-colony of France, so we know the pain of colonization
and now tell us about the pain of chinese rule and communism.
@anotheryoutubechannel4809 Chinese rule? Where did you learned history?
Its about freedom from the colonizers simple
France isn't colonizing those islands, in the last 6 years, there have been 3 independence referendums in new Caledonia, and in every single one, the majority of the population voted to stay within France. They are a part of France because they want to, not because they are being forced to
Exactly. France, England, Sweden, Denmark, USA, Germany are all being colonized and it needs to stop.
@@manuelmelo8415settler colonialism suppresses their self determination
@@BeorEviolsoh yeah it’s all grey now that yous own the land
@@manuelmelo8415 so if its not in last 6 years, its not colonizing 😂 what a fact though. Yeah there were three but results were 41% and 47% and next would have the changing one. So france democracy decided to expand the voting power😂😂 its a shame how you justify the colonizing the other country while getting out the freedom from them
Go home France
Get out! This is 2024, not 1924!
I think they should leave. The whole island will suffer, and the blame will be on you.
free new Caledonia🇳🇨 from France
But they voted to stay with France. Helllllooooo
@@jct35j Macron sent Frenchies to New Caledonia to voted stay with France lmao
@@NapoleonBlac-qd9kx when the narrative doesn't fit, lie. You have to be a resident to vote anywhere. Stop lying to yourselves.
@@jct35j you know nothing lmfao
@@A0pplePapple If you don’t understand what I wrote then it must have gone way over your head. I am also going to venture a guess that you are neither living in a democracy or have the faintest idea on how they actually work.
Go home France and take your values with you
We 1.4 billion Indians supports the independence of New Caledonia.
France should be ashamed.
Shut up
As a Vietnamese, naked imperialism & colonialism has no place in the new multi-polar world.
Stop lecturing the world about human rights and democracy.Take a look at the mirror.
Just leave the people Island. Just leave they don't want yall there anymore. In fact they never wanted y'all there in the first place.
Lmao...you do realize that a large number of them voted in favor of staying with France right? Also, how about we deport all the Non-French people from France and then we can talk about leaving New Caledonia.
@@adamoneil5317 Well said.
Rich in mines but poorest people due to the colonizer …
Free New Caledonia 🇳🇨
Caledonia 🇳🇨 Azerbaijan 🇦🇿
Imagine 17,000 km from France 😢😢
Imagine? Really? Are you 10?! 🤦♂
Free caledonia 🇳🇨✊🇩🇿
Ils ont voté pour rester en France ! Les indépendantistes les plus responsables se sont désolidariser des casseurs qui sont juste des jaloux et des incapables alcooliques
Voting for referendum was diluted in France's favor, just like what happened in West Papua.
Free Caledonia get out France
Haiti 2.0 incoming.
@@UzumakiNaruto_disrespectful as hell. If you weren't a complete ignoramus you would know Haiti is a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT SITUATION. Go back to your noodles and anime, and stay in your lane.
Maybe same reason all French colonies are kicking you out?
Yet France preaches to other countries about the rights of ‘indigenous’ people for self-determination - what irony!
Exactly
There is a Shaking in black countries, to throw off all unfair and hateful behavior. And a going forward to reclaim their resources.
You got the vision.
Dumb question! You know exactly what its about. APARTHEID
Free Caledonia!
🇦🇿🔥🇳🇨
Seems like France has no business occupying a Pacific Island nation like this still and need to leave, I saw another video of a French man out here in New Caledonia complaining about how he feels so in danger driving around checking on his 'properties' and I'm like first off you're rich enough to own multiple places, I already don't feel much sympathy for you in this situation, secondly, that's the whole point. I'm sure that island is owned up almost entirely by French nationals, indigenous people probably have next to no real hold on the island that was originally theirs. Hawaii has been done the same way!
#freenewcaledonia @freenewcaledonia
Shame on Franch on oppression ! Still has colonies! Disgrace
Frenchies OUT!
Kanaky will be DECOLONIZED....
It's sad and unacceptable how many invaded Islands in Caribbean, and the southern hemisphere are still under those colonial conditions, why won't the people fight for their freedom?!!!!
Most of them already vote and they want to stay French , in Caraibe in New calédonia , Mayottte and French polynésia
Let the indigenous people of Caledonia decide on this reference. France keeps out of their freedom to decide
The indigenous people do decide. They just had a referendum for independence that failed. These are nothing more than anti-white barbarians.
I mean the recent independence referendum failed as did the last 5 or so lol.
You know they make up a minority now right?
France, you can't afford this. Give them independence
You(France) just leave them alone and everything will be fine there
Fine like Haiti was fine when the French were kicked out.
How about letting the indigenous decide for themselves?
@@UzumakiNaruto_How about Russians take back soviet lands back
@@UzumakiNaruto_ its better than being a slave Get Out
@@LunarMonarch-bc5ehwho cares what happens in Europe... these here is the pacific
The colonists are doing their usual mental gymnastics.
New Caledonia as a whole voted to stay part of France multiple times.
All this weak talk about consists yet u still not capable of creating a functioning society where women don't go missing left right n center
@@mrAZcardinalbecause indigenous people are minority and European have majority
@@james4807Mthats a lie, the whole incident is happening because of a proposed law so that non indigenous people can also vote, europeans are 25% of the population there. Wtf arr you on about, are you like a ret*rd or something ?
@@james4807Mthat's not true whatsoever. French people only make up 24% of the population there. Tons of Natives are Anti-Indepedence too hence is why the recent independence referendum failed. Stop talking about things which you don't understand.
Freedom to New Caledonia! Stop French fascism and chauvinism!
Азербайджан с вами 🇦🇿!
Free Kanakland
Go Home France Respect our Melanesian Brothers😊
"I'm from the Arctic, living in Antarctica, and I have nothing to say about this."
Really ? So , why are there no
penguins in the Arctic...??
Than sh up
Antarctica is the south the Arctic is the north
Why do indigenous people become a minority IN THEIR OWN COUNTRY?
This is the SAME problem the West worries about all the time IN THE WEST!
Do you see why???????
West colonizes but immigrants and migrants do not.
END COLONIALISM, it's plain slavery and cheatingLyingStealing.
People, remember that ALL Colonized countries tried to free themselves BEFORE and the West quashed them.
New generations will not let this go on.
Free them
This news agency is spreading propaganda😂😂😂😂😂
Uhmm not it’s reality 😂
@@SeenaSeena04 then prove it
@@user-xx9gw5zh8b okay, what exactly do you want me to prove ?
@user-xx9gw5zh8b you prove that they are oh wait you can't
@@user-xx9gw5zh8bFrance must stop terrorism, you're country have been disturbing the people for years France is a spreader of terror!!! The people of Caledonia will gain freedom we support them.
So we see that Vietnam fought for independence, expelled the French, and fought the Americans, which was very correct. President Ho Chi Minh of Vietnam once said: nothing is more precious than independence and freedom. Rivers may dry up, mountains may erode, but that truth never changes.
End of colonialism.
Caledonia 🇳🇨 Azerbaijan 🇦🇿
Listen how she squeems when addressing how france is just abusing other peoples. Accept it and pester your government to leave them be.
Free free
Freedom of new🇳🇨 Caledonia🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨 in 🇫🇷 France🇫🇷
Per usual the colonizers of the past can’t let go of their evil traces of exploitation on the backs of human beings.
You mean the the people who colonized Europeans for 2,000 years? Like the Huns, Mongols, Kzazars, Ottomans, Moors, etc? Or is colonizing only bad when white people do it.
Can't wait until the New Caledonians gain their independence and then quickly become Haiti 2.0. That's probably how it ends.
France is clearly allowing the French people to become the majority which would to the voice away from the indigenous people of New Caledonia and that's is wrong.
But without law and order no one will be safe even the people and elders of New Caledonia
This unruly behaviour by these so called young indigenous people cannot be tolerated when people are loosing their lives.
There needs to be common ground as if the French did leave and that won't happen you could only imagine how quickly the country would fall into disaster, the protesters are over stepping their mark specifically when they are destroying their fellow countrymens businesses and housing and infrastructure.
The French invaders are effectively carrying out a campaign of genocide against the indigenous people.
Its about the French occupation. Aren't there enough snails in your home?
" A decree has been issued..... " ???? Oh well , that's that problem sorted then.?
Colonialism: Definition of western democracy
Conquered from who? Kanak are owners or 1st people
France is a good friend and strategic partner of India 🇮🇳. But as an Indian we have experience the pain of colonization... We strongly support freedom from colonizer ... Best of luck new Caledonia for the new sun of freedom...
You India you are arming Armenia, and you are hostile to Azerbaijan, Turkey, and Pakistan. You will pay for it 🇦🇿🇹🇷🇵🇰
It’s always about money. The big money in New Caledonia is NICKEL! The island is made of nickel. The French will lose millions and millions and millions of dollars if they give this island up.
What do they mean by subsidizes NC?
Free New Caledonia! France go home!
Azerbaijan supports New Caledonia🇦🇿🇳🇨
It's about a country that's not Frances. It's about the people who lived and live there, before the French.
Colonizing brown people used to be the fashion of the days. Brits, French, German, Belgium, Dutch, Spanish, Portuguese, etc, all found their little patch of colony. That is no longer the norm.
However, those still have colonies are desperately trying to keep them, but are finding it increasingly difficult, as is the case in New Caledonia.
Macron now has Ukraine and New Caledonia to worry about.
Eh...Africa and Asia colonized Europe plenty of times as well. Just look at the Moors, Berbers, Kzazars, Ottomans, Mongols, Huns, etc. We just turned the tide on you.
@@adamoneil5317 OK. Something you feel very proud of, obviously ???
@@WalkOverHotCoalbut he's correct though isnt he ,cherry picking will be your downfall ,what goes around comes around...
@@wor53lg50 What kind of downfall are you suggesting for me?
The issues at heart in New Caledonia are self determinations and ethnic politics and division.
Right in time for the freakin Olympic, perhaps it's time for Polynesian to get their independance also before it's to late.
Free Caledonia... Qazaqstan support free caledonia republic
French propaganda
Free New Caledonia
Why france colony always in trouble
Liberty for few, not for you.
where is france and where is new caledonia? What did the French colonialists forget there? freedom of New Caledonia from the paddling invaders!
Putin would know how to deal with this unrest . Speaking of putin however, I wouldn't be surprised if Kremlin has a hand in the unrest . Russia is looking to get even with the west for assisting Ukraine, that's how criminal minds operate .
I'll add that maybe the worst treatment the Kanaks received was from Australian sugar cane growers in 1800s who used to kidnap them to be slaves on the Queensland plantations ( not called Australia and not called Queensland in those days) . Anyway the British in Australia massacred the indigenous people ( they weren't called Australians yet ) .
Right, it couldn't be that the people have chosen now to draw the line and repel the French. The French and US have a lot in common, deflection masters.
Can France make truce for Olympics in new Caledonia ?..
What happened to freedom, independence, rule based order bla bla bla ... Shame on the colonizers.
Scream about "colonizers", but love all of the French subsidies and want to restrict democracy.
@@xandercruz900 Every Year France takes over 1 trillion dollar from Africa for free. So How many millions does french subsidies? Shame
My beautiful people of Caledonia you should make referendum vote for independent now 🇹🇿🇹🇿💪💪💪
"Conquered" by France in 1850 🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️ did the country declare war on France or something??? Not conquered! Imposed! Out of greed! Talk about your ridiculous word choices!
Wow, just know about New Caledonia today,
The sun never set on France empire
It's about the nickel.
Free Caledonia...All the French back in France.
Why European Union is zipped off now. Why they don’t talk about human rights? Shuffle your human rights in your back if you are deaf and not talking about it
Leave Caledonia alone and go home France
definitely New Caledonia needs to be free, however, will be able to manage everything by themselves once France leaves? that's the question.
Ya liberty freedom but conditions are applied.
We knew that self-determination was a right since WWI, yet Indochina and (now) New caledonia are ignored, when is histiry *finally* gonna learn its lesson?
End the occupation.
Every century fully independence
😢😢sorry on day i wish new Caledonia freedom😮
tell America to free caledonia,Ha,Ha,no there is no money, only resources.
They still have colonies. Wow
I guess the native Kanaks saw what happened in Palestine historically and currently and fear same is about to happen to them.
Sounds like the Caledonians want their freedom and land back.
We from West Papua fully support the independence of the Melanesian people, especially FLKS Kanaki from French colonialism
Freedom New Colodonia 🇦🇿🇳🇨
Free New Caledonia!
@elvishprincess321 Most of Western legal, institutional, economic and foreign policy are still framed by the Westerners' sense of entitlement and supremacy due to their imperial past. Hence, the colonial past is still alive ideologically in many Westerners' worldviews, especially those who have political and economic power. The reason why there is immigration to former Imperial nations is because the same countries still perpetuate colonialism through other means.
All Pacific island countries supports Kanaky, new Caledonia. # Freekanaky
France is 10,700 kms away.
Maybe Russia should help New Caledonia to liberate from oppressor colonialist France!
Turkiye 🇹🇷and Azerbaijan 🇦🇿support independence of New Caledonia
Imperial rule will never stop VIVA LE ANCIEN REGIME
vivre la caledonia.vote for independency
If France were to leave, it will be interesting to watch what happens... and no, you can't send "aid" for further "colonization".
Get out France. You think that you are gods.
Well say hello to Haiti. To bad.
Shame on france
europe and pacific island , im 48 years old neber known this 😂 oh men pls free new caledonia

Well, help us understand what is going on.
@@blackmagic6 new caledonian simply isn’t large enough to stand alone nor is it necessary
@@blackmagic6 again not necessary so sorry independence isn’t something that’s necessary for everyone especially tiny rocks in the middle of the ocean

Free Uyghur.. free Taiwan.. free Ukraine.. oh wait.. free New Caledonia 😂😂😂
Imagine only 1 in 5 get to vote and when you want to expand this, the native population riots. Usually it's when you reduce democracy that there is riots, not when you expand democracy.
