We are a very important tourist destination with the beaches and mountains but today all those activities are down.

FRENCH PRESIDENT, EMMANUEL MACRON, DISAVOWS DECENTRALIZATION AS SOLUTION TO ANGLOPHONE CONFLICT; OPTS FOR REGIONALISM.

Some might see it as a monster or a threat, while others (like The Colbert Factor) might think it's the greatest thing ever.
