Edited. by Oleysa Orlenko [REGNUM] From July 2023, when French President Emmanuel Macron arrived on a visit to New Caledonia, until today, the island in the Pacific Ocean has not ceased to be shaken by popular unrest. And they are becoming more and more harsh. The reason for the current protests is said to be disagreement with the constitutional reform, for which both houses of the French parliament have already voted. And the difficulties faced by the process of political and economic change initiated by the central authorities make one wonder whether the inhabitants of this overseas territory are so unanimous in their desire to be French subjects?
