Dans un document rendu public mardi, le pr\u00e9sident fran\u00e7ais Emmanuel Macron a reconnu que la France avait men\u00e9 une guerre au Cameroun pendant la lutte pour l’ind\u00e9pendance du pays.<\/p>\n
Le 30 juillet, Macron a \u00e9crit au pr\u00e9sident camerounais Paul Biya pour lui demander d’assumer la responsabilit\u00e9 des violences r\u00e9pressives contre les mouvements insurg\u00e9s au Cameroun.<\/p>\n
Il a d\u00e9clar\u00e9 que ces violences avaient eu lieu avant et apr\u00e8s l’ind\u00e9pendance du pays en 1960.<\/p>\n
C’est la premi\u00e8re fois que la France utilise officiellement le mot \u00ab\u00a0guerre\u00a0\u00bb pour d\u00e9crire ses actions au Cameroun durant cette p\u00e9riode.<\/p>\n
La d\u00e9claration du pr\u00e9sident fran\u00e7ais s’appuie sur les conclusions d’un rapport d’historiens pr\u00e9sent\u00e9 aux deux pays en janvier.<\/p>\n
Le rapport r\u00e9v\u00e8le que les troupes fran\u00e7aises ont \u00ab probablement tu\u00e9 des dizaines de milliers de Camerounais \u00bb entre 1945 et 1971.<\/p>\n
Emmanuel Macron a notamment reconnu les assassinats de dirigeants ind\u00e9pendantistes de l’Union des peuples du Cameroun (UPC) par la France, notamment celui de Ruben Um Nyob\u00e8 en 1958.<\/p>\n
Le pr\u00e9sident fran\u00e7ais a \u00e9galement reconnu le massacre d’Ekit\u00e9 par les forces coloniales, qui a fait au moins des dizaines de morts le 31 d\u00e9cembre 1956.<\/p>\n
Tout au long de sa pr\u00e9sidence, Emmanuel Macron a entrepris une forme de r\u00e9flexion sur le pass\u00e9 colonial de la France, reconnaissant le r\u00f4le de ce pays dans le massacre de Thiaroye en 1944, dans le g\u00e9nocide rwandais de 1994 et dans la guerre d’ind\u00e9pendance alg\u00e9rienne.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
