Last update: 7 hours agoSlavery Law Repeal in France: France’s National Assembly voted 254-0 to formally repeal the 1685 “Code Noir,” ending the last legal status that treated enslaved people as “movable property.” The move is largely symbolic but deeply emotional, with Guadeloupe MP Max Mathiasin backing the bill and lawmakers calling it a step toward remembrance and justice—while reparations remain debated and not included in the vote. Regional Aviation: In the Caribbean, LIAT (2020) and Air Caraïbes signed an interline deal starting June 1, letting passengers book on one ticket with through-checked baggage, aiming to smooth travel between islands and Europe. Local Travel Shock: In St. Kitts and Nevis, Tourism Minister Marsha Henderson says Caribbean Airlines’ withdrawal from the route was announced without consulting the government, even as officials seek another partner to protect connectivity. Disaster Readiness: France’s Antilles forces are running “Operation Caribbean 26” until June 4, training for a major cyclone scenario with multinational disaster-response teams.
