Emmanuel Macron on visit in New Caledonia

(L-R) New Caledonia's President of the Provincial Assembly of South Province Sonia Backes and New Caledonia's Goverment President Louis Mapou chat during a meeting with French President Emmanuel Macron, New Caledonia's elected officials and local representatives at the French High Commissioner Louis Le Franc's residence in Noumea, France's Pacific territory of New Caledonia on May 23, 2024. Macron flew to France's Pacific territory of New Caledonia on a politically risky visit aiming to defuse a crisis after nine days of riots that have killed six people and injured hundreds. Macron's sudden decision to fly to the southwest Pacific archipelago, some 17,000 kilometres (10,500 miles) from mainland France, is a sign of the gravity with which the government views the pro-separatist violence.
