France’s Empire Is Dying and Macron Cannot Save It. Britain Survived Collapse. France Will Not.

Macron still dreams of rebuilding Gaullist grandeur. Africa has already woken up. France cannot resurrect an empire that Africa has buried.

Ghainwi Akamentsu a Patriotic Ambazonian and fervent reader of the Independentist writes to the editor in reaction to Millan Atam’s opinion.

Letter to the editor Sir, THE OUTCOME OF A DEFAULTER’S DECEPTION Individuals whose roots are anchored in La République du Cameroun often inherit a worldview shaped by that system — a worldview where duplicity is normalized, promises are flexible, and betrayal is a political instrument. That influence does not disappear overnight simply because someone claims
