The French Ambassador to the Pacific has condemned violence in New Caledonia calling it an unacceptable means to an end.
Véronique Roger-Lacan says you can not justify deadly protests just because one group fails to 'use their political power to convince the assembly and the senate' against a controversial constitutional reform.
Ms Roger-Lacan spoke to RNZ Pacific's Lydia Lewis from Paris after representing France at a United Nations decolonization seminar.
She calls for peace.
