> The US have played in secret against France in order to isolate it and to destroy its strategy in the region Unless proven otherwise, this is a conspiracy theory. What are the reasons to destroy France's strategy in the region? It's not like France had any strategy in the region anyway, rather they have business interest (50B lost ...), and well, they care about their islands - and not losing them. But let be honest, neither China, nor Australia nor the US is going to mount a military invasion against any of these islands!.. The threat for France is actually from within, as shown very well in New Caledonia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2021_New_Caledonian_independence_referendum https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2021_New_Caledonian_independen...). And New Caledonia might not be alone...
