In his address to the participants, Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev harshly criticized France. The accusations come in several directions, and most of them relate to the colonial period. Paris is accused of several counts at once. The President of Azerbaijan blamed France for geopolitical intrigues and abuse of a permanent seat in the UN Security Council; crimes against humanity; murder of 1.5 million Algerians; theft of wealth from third world countries; conducting 200 nuclear tests in French Polynesia, 17 in Algeria; racism and Islamophobia in modern France. According to the Azerbaijani president, the fight against colonialism is not over yet. Its consequences are still evident today. Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Mali, Djibouti, Nigeria, Chad, Senegal, Vietnam, Comoros, Haiti, the peoples of Polynesia are still feeling the consequences of French colonization, including the results of nuclear tests. |
