Serge Letchimy

As his trial for embezzlement of public funds nears its end, Serge Letchimy, president of Martinique's territorial collectivity, advocates for the island's autonomy within the Republic. The political heir to poet Aimé Césaire, who served as mayor of Fort-de-France for over fifty years, he reflects on a career shaped by urban challenges. At 72, he remains committed to the island's governance.
