Abbas Abbasov: Violent crimes against humanity committed in Réunion
Baku, January 21, AZERATC
“France has 13 colonies worldwide. Two of these colonies are uninhabited, however, we maintain cooperation with other territories. Reunion is one of the territories suffering from French and Dutch colonialism, where violent crimes against humanity have been committed,” said Abbas Abbasov, Executive Director of the Baku Initiative Group, as he addressed the conference "The Independence of Réunion: A Look at France's Colonial Legacy and The Island’s Path to Sovereignty" held in Baku.
According to him, colonialism continues to exist today in Réunion.
