Africa-Press. <\/strong> <\/span>Le parlement franc\u0327ais a vote\u0301 a\u0300 l’unanimite\u0301 pour l’abrogation de la “loi noire” et de tous les textes re\u0301gissant l’esclavage dans les colonies franc\u0327aises jusqu’en 1848, dans un geste symbolique visant a\u0300 supprimer officiellement ces lois du syste\u0300me le\u0301gislatif franc\u0327ais, conside\u0301re\u0301es – selon les mots du pre\u0301sident Emmanuel Macron – comme “contraires aux valeurs de la Re\u0301publique”.<\/p>\n

La proposition de loi a e\u0301te\u0301 porte\u0301e par le de\u0301pute\u0301 de la Guadeloupe, Max Mathiasin, avec le soutien d’un large e\u0301ventail politique allant du parti “La France insoumise” a\u0300 celui des “Re\u0301publicains”. Le projet de loi devrait poursuivre ses e\u0301tapes le\u0301gislatives avant son adoption finale.<\/p>\n

Cette initiative coi\u0308ncide avec le 25e anniversaire de la loi “Tobira” adopte\u0301e en 2001, qui a reconnu l’esclavage et la traite des esclaves comme des crimes contre l’humanite\u0301.<\/p>\n

La “loi noire” remonte a\u0300 une se\u0301rie de de\u0301crets royaux e\u0301mis a\u0300 partir de 1685 sous le re\u0300gne de Louis XIV, visant a\u0300 organiser l’esclavage dans les colonies franc\u0327aises durant les XVIIe et XVIIIe sie\u0300cles.<\/p>\n

La “loi noire” de\u0301finissait les esclaves comme des “biens meubles”, traite\u0301s comme des marchandises appartenant a\u0300 leurs mai\u0302tres, et pre\u0301voyait des sanctions se\u0301ve\u0300res pour les esclaves fugitifs, allant du marquage au fer a\u0300 la peine de mort.<\/p>\n

Bien que ces textes aient perdu toute valeur le\u0301gale depuis l’abolition officielle de l’esclavage en 1848, ils n’avaient pas e\u0301te\u0301 retire\u0301s du registre le\u0301gislatif franc\u0327ais jusqu’a\u0300 pre\u0301sent.<\/p>\n

La semaine dernie\u0300re, Emmanuel Macron a annonce\u0301 son soutien a\u0300 l’abrogation symbolique de la “loi noire” lors d’une ce\u0301re\u0301monie au palais de l’E\u0301lyse\u0301e pour ce\u0301le\u0301brer le 25e anniversaire de la loi “Tobira”.<\/p>\n

Macron a de\u0301clare\u0301 que la pre\u0301sence de ces textes dans la le\u0301gislation franc\u0327aise repre\u0301sente une “erreur” et une “trahison des valeurs de la Re\u0301publique franc\u0327aise”, appelant le gouvernement a\u0300 soutenir le projet de loi qui avait de\u0301ja\u0300 rec\u0327u un soutien unanime au sein d’une commission parlementaire.<\/p>\n

Lors de son discours, le pre\u0301sident a e\u0301galement aborde\u0301 la question des re\u0301parations lie\u0301es a\u0300 l’esclavage, un sujet qui suscite un de\u0301bat renouvele\u0301 en France et a\u0300 l’international.<\/p>\n

Il a qualifie\u0301 le de\u0301bat sur les re\u0301parations de “re\u0301flexion inacheve\u0301e”, affirmant que la premie\u0300re forme de re\u0301paration re\u0301side dans “la reconnaissance” des crimes commis, tout en soulignant la ne\u0301cessite\u0301 de ne pas faire de “promesses fallacieuses”.<\/p>\n

Le pre\u0301sident a de\u0301clare\u0301: “Nous devons e\u0302tre honne\u0302tes et reconnai\u0302tre qu’il ne sera jamais possible de re\u0301parer comple\u0300tement ce crime, car cela est impossible”.<\/p>\n

Lors de cette occasion, l’ancienne ministre de la Justice, Christiane Taubira, a commente\u0301 une de\u0301cision re\u0301cente de l’Assemble\u0301e ge\u0301ne\u0301rale des Nations Unies, mene\u0301e par le Ghana, qualifiant l’esclavage et la traite des Africains asservis de “plus grands crimes contre l’humanite\u0301”.<\/p>\n

La France, aux co\u0302te\u0301s de plusieurs pays europe\u0301ens, s’est abstenue de voter sur cette re\u0301solution, justifiant sa position par le refus d’e\u0301tablir “une hie\u0301rarchie entre les crimes contre l’humanite\u0301”, une position que Macron a re\u0301affirme\u0301e lors de son discours.<\/p>\n

Cependant, le pre\u0301sident a reconnu qu’il “ne peut e\u0302tre ignore\u0301” les demandes de justice et de re\u0301parations formule\u0301es par plusieurs pays africains et des organisations civiles.<\/p>\n

Cette initiative s’inscrit dans les efforts franc\u0327ais de\u0301clare\u0301s pour continuer a\u0300 travailler sur la me\u0301moire lie\u0301e a\u0300 l’esclavage et a\u0300 ses conse\u0301quences historiques, alors que le de\u0301bat sur les re\u0301parations connai\u0302t une intensification croissante sur la sce\u0300ne internationale, notamment de la part des pays africains et des organisations de droits humains qui re\u0301clament une reconnaissance plus large de la responsabilite\u0301 historique du colonialisme europe\u0301en et de la traite des esclaves.<\/p>\n
