French Chronicle …

Tags: ,

Many articles this week in France. Most were devoted to the acquittal of the mayor of Villeron, near Paris and of 5 of the residents of that town for having voluntarily chased away Roma from a camp and destroyed their housing two years ago. The mayor clamours he is not a racist, well, that can be discussed, and one Romani organisation is considering an appeal to that decision. The other news with several articles is a fire in a Roma camp near Paris in Ris-Orangis. Other news are the usual ones: In Western France, how to distribute the “effort” among communes, i.e. how to apportion Roma to different towns; and the story of a landowner whose land has been occupied by Roma.
