Thousands Protest Against Controversial Treaties Bill in New Zealand | The Express Tribune

Описание: #newzealand #haka

Thousands of New Zealanders have taken to the streets to protest the controversial Treaties Bill, which seeks to reinterpret the country’s 184-year-old founding document. The bill recently passed its first hurdle in parliament, sparking a series of protests and a nine-day march known as the hikoi.

The march, which is set to reach Wellington on November 19, is a powerful statement on the significance of the Treaty of Waitangi. Signed in 1840 between the British Crown and over 500 Maori chiefs, the Treaty still plays a crucial role in shaping New Zealand’s laws and policies today.
