Representative of Martinique Freedom Party: France poisoned African countries with harmful substances

France poisoned African countries with harmful substances, Luc Francis Carole, the representative of the Martinique Freedom Party, told a press conference.

He noted that France used rare chemicals to grow bananas in African countries.

"They contaminated the soil. And this contributed to the increase in morbidity among the population of African countries. Molecules of these substances were even found in breast milk. We took measures to tackle this, but this problem has not yet been solved. And when we turned to French scientists, they argued that it was all due to the unsanitary conditions in Africa."

The international conference "Neo-colonialism: violation of human rights and injustice", organized by the Baku Initiative Group (BIG), opens in Baku tomorrow.

Representatives from 14 countries, as well as the overseas territories of France and Corsica, will take part in the event.

The Baku Initiative Group (BIG) was created on July 6, 2023, in Baku by participants in the conference "Complete Elimination of Colonialism" within the framework of the ministerial meeting of the Coordination Bureau of the Non-Aligned Movement presided by Azerbaijan.

BIG supports the struggle for freedom of peoples located in various parts of the world still suffering from colonization in the 21st century.
