Political party in France From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Femu a Corsica (Corsican pronunciation: [ˈfɛmu a ˈkorsiɡa]; lit. 'Let's Do Corsica' or 'Let us make Corsica') is a Corsican autonomist political party.[2][3] It was formed for the first time prior to the 2010 French regional elections in the form of a political coalition. The coalition members, Inseme per a Corsica, the Party of the Corsican Nation (PNC) and Chjama Naziunale, merged during the founding congress of the party in Corte on 15 October 2017. The PUDEMU (Pulitica è Demucrazia in Muvimentu) movement also merged into the new party. The PNC was later re-established in 2019. The leader of the party is Gilles Simeoni.[4]
