Sébastien Lecornu’s announcement goes badly in Corsica

In Corsica, the exit of the Minister of Overseas Territories, Sébastien Lecornu, Friday November 26, on the autonomy of Guadeloupe, immediately aroused reactions. Jean-Félix Acquaviva sees a form of weakness of the government in this gesture. “He there is nothing more noble than a democratic process when the people have the possibility of choosing. The government is showing that it is giving in to violence. He gives in to the nuisance capacity“, explains, Saturday November 27, the deputy for Haute-Corse, while the French West Indies have been in the throes of violence for several days against a background of opposition to the health pass and the compulsory vaccination of caregivers.

For Jean-Christophe Angelini, these announcements would only aim to appease the situation in Guadeloupe: “I believe that there is a desire to respond to a social and media crisis with an announcement effect. I am also afraid that this announcement effect will not have a follow-up”, testifies the president of the group “Avanzemu” to the Corsican assembly. The nationalists took advantage of this moment to recall that they obtained more than 70% of the votes during the last territorial elections.
