France
French President Emmanuel Macron acknowledged France's role in "repressive violence" during Cameroon's push for independence in a letter to the country's president made public on Tuesday. The acknowledgement follows a French government report from January that detailed mass displacement and brutal crackdowns, notably in the 1950s.
