France Riots and Police Shootings: The Deep Divide in French Society

On one side, a France “supporter of order”. On the other, a side that sees “racism and ethnic discrimination behind police deaths and mistreatment of minorities”. For the head of the Paris office of the New York Times, the fatal shooting of the police officer who killed the teenager Nahel M. in Nanterre on Tuesday June 27, and the nights of riots which followed, “still dug” the deep fracture that divides French society into two blocks, with increasingly “irreconcilable”. From now on, he analyzes, France is divided into two “rival camps”.

From the day of the tragedy, “the vast denunciation” of the event, fueled by the term “inexcusable” used by President Emmanuel Macron to describe it, “paved the way, as violence increased, for tribal expressions of allegiance” towards one side or the other, note the New York Times.
