France admits waging ‘war’ in African state

 

Web Pic via Albi clearly highlighted that a war had taken place in Cameroon, during which the colonial authorities and the French army carried out multiple forms of repressive violence.

 War … continued beyond 1960 with France’s support for actions carried out by the independent Cameroonian authorities.
It is up to me today to assume the role and responsibility of France in these events.

Cameroon had been a German colony until World War I, when it was split between France and Britain, with the French-controlled area gaining independence in 1960 and the southern British Cameroons joining a year later.
