{UAH} SLAVERY IN LIBYA TO TERRORIZE AFRICANS?

Fellow Africans,

The response by Rwanda to take in African migrants persecuted in Libya is commendable. I also appreciate France's decision to urgently convene a UN Security Council meeting on the disturbing development. President Macron has rightly called it "a crime against humanity".
However, I would like the EU and Britain to own up to their role in encouraging the brutality against African migrants in Libya.
What is happening as shown around the world by the media, is most probably part of a deliberate policy by the European Union and Britain to discourage Africans from crossing the Mediterranean Sea to Europe. The more the suffering in Libya, the more some Europeans see the policy as successful. Because in theory it means less Africans wanting to attempt the journey after seeing what happens to fellow migrants in Libya. Remember that Libya has in recent years become the defacto route for African migrants heading to Europe. The new Libyan government is literally paid by Europe to hoard them in place. This European policy confers upon Libya the duty of turning migrants back to their country's of origin before they get out to sea. But Libya is also tasked to first make their stay as uncomfortable as possible so that when other Africans see what is happening, they will prefer to stay in their countries. European governments in general see this as the best way to discourage Africans from attempting to travel to the EU. Trust me the EU will even rush to pay Rwanda to handle the relocation as quickly as possible. They want Europe for Europeans, just as Robert Mugabe wanted Zimbabwe for indeginous Zimbabweans, and Amin wanted Uganda for indeginous Ugandans, right?
