Heightened rhetoric amid French Polynesia funding woes

This comes after the French high commissioner, Richard Didier, rejected claims that Paris had stopped a French Development Bank loan which Temaru said is needed to be able to pay the public service at the end of the month.

Contradicting Didier publicly, Temaru has refused to meet him, which in turn has prompted Didier to accuse him of showing a lack of respect.

Temaru said he wonders if Didier knows French Polynesia’s history and what respect then-President Charles de Gaulle showed by deciding to test nuclear weapons in the South Pacific.
