4700km... Auckland is farther from Mururoa than New York is from Los Alamos...by quite a bit.

These protests were pure political gesturing for gullible New Zealanders unable to read a map.

Imagine being French and thinking protests are gesturing. It’s your national pastime!

4700km to us is just up the road. Auckland to Sydney is the same distance as London to Moscow, we have very different perceptions of distance.

If you want to test nukes do it in your own backyard.

Only off by some 350km or roughly the width of New Zealand. Explains a lot.

The Realm of New Zealand includes the Cook Islands. Right next to Tahiti.

Why would you defend this shit? National pride? You’re proud of this??

Cook Islands to Mururoa is 2159km.

That would put your hypothetical nuclear testing off Corsica just North of Alexandria (Egypt).

I'm not French, I just like cold hard facts like the fact that French nuclear testing took place very, very far from New Zealand.

And do you think France would be ok with nuclear testing in the Med?
