Last update: an hour agoRiots Accountability: Two fresh court rulings tied to the May 13, 2024 unrest show how France’s liability can swing case-by-case—Nouméa’s administrative court found the State liable where authorities had clear warning signs before violence, but other damages were ruled beyond what police could realistically prevent given the scale. Electoral Roll Fight: In Paris, the Senate’s Law Committee is again grilling the government on reopening the electorate for New Caledonia’s provincial elections, a move that loyalists see as a partial “way forward” while pro-independence parties warn it risks diluting Kanak political power.

Regional Pressure: Separately, the UN’s CERD has renewed attention on New Caledonia’s racial and political tensions as the political process drags on.
