The agreement signed by Emmanuel Macron with New Caledonia's leaders establishes the creation of a 'state of New Caledonia' within the French Republic, with the aim of overcoming separatist tensions.

The deal includes conditions for a residents' vote and an economic recovery pact, and is subject to parliamentary approval and a referendum in 2026.
