Szijjarto sees endless sources of migration in Africa

There are "endless sources" if illegal migration in Africa and Brussels policies that encourage migration lead to a dead end, endangering European security, Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto said, attending the EU-Africa summit Abidjan, Ivory Coast, on Thursday. Szijjarto said the pressure of migration on Europe is expected to grow because terrorist activities are destabilising several African countries and many are coping with economic challenges. Some 400,000 people heading for Europe have already crowded in Libya and the population of Africa is expected to double form the current 1.2 billion by 2050, Szijjarto said. The summit has proven that European policies that consider migration the best answer to demographic and labour challenges are very dangerous, he added.
