Corsica: Senate rejects autonomy bill and aftermath
On October 27, 2026, the Senate rejected the constitutional bill on Corsican autonomy, after which the autonomist elected officials withdrew from the Beauvau process. Several island officials reacted: Jean-Christophe Angelini denounced a "very negative" evening, Josepha Giacometti criticized the process, while Minister Françoise Gatel wanted to believe in a positive outcome, and some elected officials denounced a "deplorable spectacle". On October 28, Jean-Martin Mondoloni contested accusations targeting the Corsican right, Nanette Maupertuis criticized the state's position, and Paul-Félix Benedetti as well as Femu a Corsica called for a referendum, with Nazione urging to move on from Beauvau. On October 29, the Corsican Assembly was convened in extraordinary session for November 4, and a constitutionalist cast doubt on a local initiative referendum. On October 30, the government reaffirmed its intention to present a text to the National Assembly and announced a new phase of consultations.
