President Emmanuel Macron said on Wednesday he was open to adding a specific mention of Corsica in the French Constitution but rejected several other demands for autonomy made by the island's nationalist leaders. Corsica's relationship with mainland France has long troubled French presidents. For 40 years, separatists waged a militant campaign, blowing up police stations and mansions owned by mainlanders and carrying out assassinations, before laying down their arms in 2014.
The head of the regional govement, Gilles Simeoni, said that Macron had "missed an opportunity" to forge a new relationship with the island.
During his first visit to Corsica since his election last year, Macron attempted to tread a middle ground, condemning in strong terms past acts of militancy while playing up the need for better cooperation between the island and the mainland.
"I want us to open a new chapter of our history," Macron told Corsican officials. "I want everyone in the (French) Republic to be able to claim their identity, their specificity. But if this specificity is to be the Republic's enemy, then it's an error and I cannot accept it." Why do International News 24/7 ...

Paris ground to a standstill this week after the heaviest snowfall in nearly 30 years, but was it really all that? Paris hit by “heavy snow”, proclaimed CNN, ABC News, UK newspapers The Telegraph and the Evening Standard, and a host of other media outlets.
Not to sound like the current occupant of the White House, but this New Yorker is calling those screamers Fake News and the Parisian response to the white powder covering the French capital, well, sad.
Yes, it’s true that snow rarely manages to get a foothold on the ground here and is normally – quite fittingly – lovely and never in excess. But Tuesday’s snow stuck and was abundant enough to allow for more than a few impromptu snowball fights or batailles de boules de neige, a phrase not often uttered by Parisian schoolchildren.
But shutting down public transport? Closing the Eiffel Tower? Puh-lease. I’ve seen calmer responses in desert nations. Literally. When it snowed in Cairo in 2013 for the first time in a century, Twitter was rife with pictures of snow sphinxes and pyramids, but the schools stayed open and people made it in to work.

A Belgian court must acquit Paris attacks suspect Salah Abdeslam over a shootout with police because of a legal language mix-up between Dutch and French, his defence lawyer said Thursday. Abdeslam, 28, refused to come to court in Brussels on Thursday, after accusing judges on the first day of the trial on Monday of being anti-Muslim and proclaiming he would only put his "trust in Allah".
In Abdeslam's absence, lawyer Sven Mary sought the case's dismissal over a technicality in how the judges were named to investigate the gunbattle in Brussels in March 2016, in which three police offers were wounded.
"It's a very Belgian story," said Mary, explaining that the top counter-terror judge should have issued the document naming the judges in Dutch, and not in French, because he serves in a Dutch-speaking court in Brussels.
The "whole case" against Abdeslam and his Tunisian co-defendant, Sofiane Ayari, "must be thrown out," Mary said.
Belgium's deep divisions between Dutch and French-speakers were often cited as a factor in the country's widely criticised investigations into the cell behind attacks in 2015 in Paris and 2016 in Brussels.

French industrial output rose by 0.5 percent in December from the previous month, beating forecasts, according to data from the INSEE national statistics agency. The growth in December industrial production was led by higher production in areas such as metallurgy, software and electronics goods, and it beat a Reuters forecast for growth of 0.1 percent.
INSEE also said that manufacturing output advanced by 0.3 percent in December.
Official data at the end of January showed that the French economy had grown 1.9 percent over 2017 - its strongest performance since 2011.
Official readings of business and consumer confidence have scaled multi-year peaks since the election of President Emmanuel Macron last May on the back of an agenda to reform the economy and help businesses.
Positives and negatives
Macron declared “France is back” in a speech at January's World Economic Forum in Davos, drumming home his message that France is open for business.
“For the first time in a long time I sense optimism both in France and from investors looking at France,” Paul Rawlinson, global president of law firm Baker McKenzie, told French daily Le Monde in Davos.

A French appeals court has upheld the far-right National Front's (FN) decision to expel party founder Jean-Marie Le Pen over anti-Semitic remarks on Friday, but the party’s bid to cut all links with the notorious politician suffered a setback. The appeals court in Versailles ruled that while the FN had been within its rights to boot 89-year-old Jean-Marie Le Pen out of the party over controversial remarks about the Holocaust, he could retain the honorary role of party president for life.
However, there could be a further sting for the man who for decades embodied France's anti-immigrant far-right.The party may eliminate the president-for-life position at a congress next month, breaking the father's last ties with the party he founded in 1972.
The congress is also expected to vote on a new name for the FN in a final break with the party's past. Jean-Marie Le Pen said in a Tweet last month that a name change would amount to "veritable treason" towards decades of party followers.

The French govement has proposed plans to address the conces of prison guards, who continued striking for a 12th day on Friday over security and low pay. But penal reform advocates say the measures will do little to tackle France’s prison crisis. Prison guards backed by unions have launched strike actions across France, in some cases cutting off all access to penitentiaries. At the Fleury-Mérogis prison south of Paris – the largest prison in Europe – mattresses, tires and debris blocked the entrance to the men's jail while access to Nanterre penitentiary and others was halted by dozens of striking guards.
The unrest was sparked by a January 11 incident in which a German inmate attacked four guards with scissors and a razor blade at Vendin-le-Vieil prison as he awaited possible extradition to the United States. Christian Ganczarski, who spent time in Afghanistan and is thought to have once been an adviser to Osama bin Laden, was arrested in France in 2003.

President Emmanuel Macron ran for office on a promise to revitalise the economy and shed France’s reputation as a place that is hostile to business. Less than a year into his tenure, his efforts have started to pay off. “France is back,” Macron announced in a speech at the World Economic Forum in Davos on Wednesday, continuing his charm offensive to convince the world that France is open for business.
“France was coming from a very low point both in terms of policy and in terms of perception,” Peter Zemsky, professor of strategy at INSEAD, told FRANCE 24. At Davos, he said, it was clear that: “Macron has shifted perceptions.” 'Macron has changed perceptions of France' says INSEAD professor Zemsky
France’s reputation for smothering bureaucracy in addition to high taxes, and a labour code that's not business friendly, has made it hard for the country to attract foreign investment and talent.

The swollen Seine rose even higher on Sunday, keeping Paris on alert, though forecasters said the flooding should peak by the end of the day. The river had risen 11 centimetres (4.3 inches) in 24 hours by Saturday evening, more than four metres above its normal height, causing headaches for commuters as well as people living near its overflowing banks.
Tourists suffered too with the capital's famous Bateaux Mouches rivercraft out of service, and only emergency services authorised to navigate the Seine.
The Vigicrues flooding agency forecasts the river will peak at 5.95 metres (19.3 feet) oveight, not quite reaching the 2016 high of 6.1 metres, when the Louvre museum was forced to shut for four days.
But the world's most visited museum was on high alert Sunday, along with the Musee d'Orsay and Orangerie galleries, with the lower level of the Louvre's Islamic arts wing closed to visitors at least until Monday.
A statue of an Algerian French army soldier from the Crimean War named Zouave that has guarded the river at the Pont d'Alma bridge in central Paris since 1910 was drenched up to the thighs in the muddy waters of the Seine.

The trial of Jawad Bendaoud, landlord to two of the November 13 Paris attackers, became something of a spectacle in the French press this week with the defendant being mocked for his unintentionally comic testimony. Bendaoud, a 31-year-old drug dealer and landlord, rented his apartment in the northe Paris suburb of Saint-Denis to Abdelhamid Abaaoud -- the senior Islamic State (IS) group militant suspected of coordinating the attacks that killed 130 people -- and his accomplice Chakib Akrouh. The French press dubbed him the "landlord of Daesh", referring to the IS group by another acronym.
Bendaoud maintains that he did not know who the men were. The three-week trial, which began on January 24, will determine whether Bendaoud was an accomplice. If convicted, he faces six years in prison.
‘Surreal’ testimony
Since the start of the trial, the hashtags #Jawad and #JawadBendaoud have been trending on French Twitter as Bendaoud became the subject of amused scrutiny. The 20minutes website called the trial the “Jawad Comedy Club”, while France Info television ran a story on “the nine most surreal moments in his interrogation”.

French President Emmanuel Macron told the world's business elite in Davos on Wednesday that France was back as a European powerhouse under his reformist govement. "France is back at the core of Europe," Macron said in English in a highly anticipated speech, before switching to French to outline his vision of a new "social compact" for globalisation.

Jawad Bendaoud, the man who housed two of the perpetrators of the November 13, 2015 attacks in Paris, appeared in court on Wednesday on charges of harbouring terrorists. Bendaoud rented his apartment north of the French capital to Abdelhamid Abaaoud -- the senior Islamic State (IS) group militant suspected of coordinating the attacks that killed 130 people -- and his accomplice Chakib Akrouh. The French press dubbed him the "landlord of Daesh", referring to the IS group by another acronym.
The Paris Criminal Court will determine whether 31-year-old Bendaoud, himself a convicted killer, was unaware of their involvement when he hosted the November 13 attackers or if he was an accomplice. If convicted, he faces six years in prison.
The trial is expected to last for three weeks, and has sparked a feeding frenzy among the press and lit up social media networks. Not only is this the first trial in connection to the Paris attacks, but the defendant became, through his own stumbling, an object of widespread ridicule.

The Seine continued to rise Thursday, covering quays in muddy water and putting museums on an emergency footing as record rainfall pushed rivers over their banks across northeaste France. The Seine is expected to reach a peak of up to 6.2 metres (20.3 feet) in the capital this Saturday on a scale used to measure its levels, four to five metres above its normal height.
The December-January period is now the third-wettest on record since data started being collected in 1900, according to the national weather service, Meteo France.
Many regions have seen double the rainfall than normal, including Paris where 183 millimetres (7.2 inches) have been dumped since December 1. More rain was forecast for Thursday.
The flooding situation in the French capital remains, however, far less severe than during the benchmark 1910 Great Flood, when the Seine water level rose to 8.62 meters (more than 28 feet), forcing many Parisians to evacuate their homes.
While the Seine is set to reach levels last seen in 1982 at its peak on Saturday, it flows in a deep channel through the heart of the capital, posing a danger only to riverside buildings and infrastructure.

The French govement said Thursday it will start handing out smaller, on-the-spot fines as part of a new policy on cannabis use, ruling out a decriminalisation of the drug. Cannabis use is on the rise in France, with around 700,000 people estimated to use the drug every day.
The number of 15- and 16-year-olds who admitted recent use of cannabis was higher in France than any other European country in a 2015 survey published by the European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug addiction, an EU agency.
“We are going to introduce simplified fines for this offence,” said Interior Minister Gerard Collomb.
Collomb said further action against offenders would remain an option, adding: “Therefore there will be no decriminalisation for cannabis use.”
The new fines are expected to be set at 150 to 200 euros ($180 to $250).
France’s current laws on drug use are some of Europe’s strictest, providing for fines of up to 3,750 euros and prison sentences of up to a year.
In 2015, the last year for which figures were published, 140,000 people were arrested for drug use offences, though only 3,098 were given prison sentences.

The relentless rain over Paris, which caused the river Seine to burst its banks, has tued transport into a nightmare for tourists and commuters alike, halting train and boat services. Furthermore, rats are wreaking havoc on the streets of Paris! “Of course the floods [have] made us upset because we don’t have the Seine cruises,” a frustrated tourist told FRANCE 24 near the overflowing river, but insisted that did not change how he feels for the city. “I love Paris anyhow,” he said.
Australian tourist Debbie Komorowski, visiting the city for the fifth time, said, “Two years ago we had our wedding anniversary here, on the bench over there [on the Île de la Cité island in the heart of Paris]. And now it’s gone! We can’t believe it. It’s amazing and sad to see.”
Rats take to the streets
More alarming for Parisians are the rats being flushed out of the sewers, making the city’s rodent problem much more visible.
“That doesn’t mean there are more of them, only that we see them more often,” said Pierre Falgayrac, an expert in urban rodents, who says the capital is now home to 1.75 rats for every Parisian.

The main defendant in the first trial stemming from the November 2015 Paris terror attacks told a Paris court this week that he had no idea that the two men to whom he rented his suburban apartment following the caage were jihadists. "No one told me that I was sheltering terrorists," a tearful Jawad Bendaoud told the packed Paris court as the trial began on Wednesday. "I swear on the head of my son that I didn't know they were terrorists."
Bendaoud rented the flat north of the French capital to Abdelhamid Abaaoud – a senior Islamic State (IS) group jihadist suspected of coordinating the attacks that killed 130 people – and his accomplice Chakib Akrouh.
Appearing nervous and confused, Bendaoud added: "I love life too much, I love women too much" for any such involvement.
Anti-terror police killed Abaaoud, Akrouh and Abaaoud's cousin Hasna Aitboulahcen in a ferocious predawn assault on Bendaoud's apartment in the gritty Saint-Denis suburb north of Paris on November 18, five days after the attacks.

Thousands of people, including relatives, friends and disciples, flocked to Lyon cathedral on Friday, some standing in the rain for hours, to bid a final farewell to the city’s favourite son, Paul Bocuse. Paul Bocuse, who died last Saturday aged 91, established a global network of admirers throughout his extended career, providing inspiration to a multitude of chefs for his nouvelle cuisine style.
But despite his global fame, the "pope of French cuisine" always remained accessible to the people of Lyon, who tued out in droves on Friday for his funeral service.
“Monsieur Paul, you loved your city and it loved you,” said Interior Minister Gérard Collomb, a longtime mayor of Lyon, in a moving tribute that captured the mood in France’s capital of gastronomy.
Laurence Fayolle, a local, sheltered under an umbrella outside the Cathedral Saint-Jean while she waited for the service to start. She braved the cold rain “because I am Lyonnaise and I like to cook,” she said. “I knew all his restaurants.”
She didn’t know Bocuse personally, but she used to see him around town because he used to frequent a restaurant in her neighbourhood, and once she shook his hand.
