Took power after a military coup, rewrote the constitution to turn France into a presidential dictatorship. Our current president’s abusing it and govern alone, because he can, because de Gaule made it possible.
It’s terrible how the past claws at us in the present.
Note: actually the EEC, as the EU did not exist at the time
The French were the 2nd worst colonizers and in Africa Leopold was the worst.
