France officially recognized its significant involvement in the brutal suppression of Cameroonian independence movements spanning several decades.
President Macron's letter to President Biya detailed findings from a joint commission investigating colonial-era repression.
This acknowledgment, stemming from a comprehensive report, highlights France's actions and the suffering inflicted upon Cameroon.
While acknowledging its role, France has yet to issue a formal apology or commit to specific reparations for the inflicted harm.
