ANTI-FRENCH RALLIES ACROSS CHINA
On 18 and 19 April, there were anti-French rallies across China. The protestors demand a boycott of French products and in particular of Carrefour hypermarkets, because the fiasco of the Olympics torch in Paris.
In China, no demonstration can be held if the government don’t agree or push it. We saw that with in anti-Japanese demonstrations in May 2005. So the question is why against France ? The Olympic torch had problem in Germany, France, Great Britain and the United States. The German Chancellor has already said she will not attend the opening ceremony of the Games as the French president has not yet given his decision.
Beijing did not appreciate that Paris asked Beijing to resume negotiations with the Dalai Lama and proposed to be a go-between. The main activist movement against the game is Reporters Without frontiers based in Paris. The French president, Nicolas Sarkosy , will be the president of European Union. If he will not attend the opening ceremony, it could be a slap for the Chine government.
In China, while there is a lot of French corps, the protestors were only targeting Carrefour distribution company, accusing it of supporting Tibet independence. That is completely wrong. Carrefour, which has more than one hundred hyper markets in China and is the leader in China is sponsoring the Games. So we can think that Chinese rival companies could be pushing behind the protestors. Maybe there is a blackmail of the Chinese authorities on Carrefour, that has already happened in the past.
