BIG executive director: We believe overseas territories will gain independence

Colonialism will cease to exist in the future, Abbas Abbasov, Executive Director of the Baku Initiative Group (BIG), said during the international thematic conference “Towards the Decolonization of Guadeloupe: Challenges and Prospects” held in Baku.

According to Report, he emphasized that one of the consequences of colonization is the policy of assimilation:

“The people of Guadeloupe are also fighting against assimilation. In the future, colonialism will no longer exist. In a few years, the international community will be more aware of Guadeloupe’s language and religion. Because we believe that overseas territories will gain their independence,” he stated.
