French President Emmanuel Macron said on Tuesday that Paris owed "a debt" to French Polynesia over nuclear tests conducted in the South Pacific territory between 1966 and 1996, but stopped short of apologizing. Ahead of Macron's visit, Polynesian demonstrators were hoping that Macron would apologize and announce compensation for radiation victims.
