"Tunisia’s president Kais Saied recently called for urgent measures against
illegal immigration of sub-Saharan African nationals. He said they were a
source of “violence, crime and unacceptable acts”. His comments were condemned
by the international community and the World Bank paused talks over its future
engagement with Tunisia. They also led to widespread protests in Tunisia while
hundreds of migrants fled the country.
Moina Spooner, from
The Conversation Africa, asked Jean-Pierre Cassarino, an
expert on international migration in the Maghreb and Africa region, to shed
light on migration to Tunisia and what might be behind the president’s
comments."
