Macron admits France's 'repressive violence' in Cameroon during decolonisation

French President Emmanuel Macron acknowledged on Tuesday that France waged a "war" in Cameroon during and after its decolonisation in the late 1950s that involved "repressive violence" in a letter to Cameroonian President Paul Biya. The admission follows a French government report detailing mass displacement and brutal crackdowns during Cameroon’s push for independence.
