'It's not up to me to ask forgiveness, that's not what this is about, that word would break all of our ties,' says President Macron on French colonisation of Algeria
President Emmanuel Macron has said that he will not "ask forgiveness" from Algeria for French colonisation but hopes to continue working towards reconciliation with his counterpart Abdelmajid Tebboune.
But in the interview, he also expressed hope that Tebboune "will be able to come to France in 2023", to return Macron's own trip to Algiers last year and continue their "unprecedented work of friendship". Macron has also questioned whether Algeria existed as a nation before being colonised by France, drawing an angry response from Algiers.
