These people should go to Middle East, < Qatar, Saudi, Kuwait, brother Muslims.
Why? They speak French! Back to former colonisators!
Perhaps the "colonisers" should go back there and sort out their country, goodness knows they can't find a decent government for the people, and that applies to most of Africa and the middle East imo.🤷
So they will end as slaves, as those countries used them for centuries...
What you are to ask is what many Western do to africa. They take our ressources by supporting military the treat among us to give them what they want and in return to have protection against rise of patriotic leaders like Sonko who are now in prison .the most famous leader who say senegalese first.
@@tales325 Could not agree more! Westerns keep on invading developing countries and "support" them with weapons. In return they take ressourcers. They bring nothing than death, chaos, revolutions and poverty.
The amount of people on move from Africa and Afgan/Pakistan towards EU is mind blowing.
It is pretty sad because with the new law they will be send back and their journey would be for nothing

What did Europe do to the Americas ??? Isn't that also sas ? What about Australia and New Zealand. You need a continental level of AFD you double standards little clowns
Untrue. Most don’t make it to Europe and black populations in most European nations aren’t even the largest minority - don’t forget that Africa is a continent. Therefore, you end up with clusters of people from various African countries and ethnicities in particular countries.

Yup
Corruption and incompetence of the Senegalese leadership is part of the problem.
European, American and Chinese imperialism is the root cause of the problem.
@@smedentsevYou can leave the Chinese out, they were in the same boat (pun intended) as these folks when the oppressors were setting up these conditions worldwide.
@@saabajoe The fact they were oppressed does not excuse becoming oppressors themselves. China exploits third world countries the same way as US, France, UK or Russia. The only difference is that China is using "soft force" instead of military force.
China is a typical imperialist country (by Lenin's definition).
@@smedentsev Let us not shift the blame. Our governments' Corruption and Incompetence are the root cause of our problems.
@@NQA1209 No, it is NOT. The reason is that you DO NOT understand what "capitalism", "imperialism" and "colonialism" mean. If you would - you wouldn't "blame" _"corruption"_ and _"incompetence"_ .
And unless you learn what drives the world around you (including economy and politics) - you'll never be able to fix it. If not the demand for the for cheap fish by exploitation of Senegal waters - there wouldn't be a demand for corruption. And BTW - everyone in this chain is perfectly "competent". Everyone knows EXACTLY what they are doing. But you.
*"With adequate profit, capital is very bold. A certain 10 percent will ensure its employment anywhere; 20 percent will produce eagerness, 50 percent positive audacity; 100 percent will make it ready to trample on all human laws; 300 percent, and there is not a crime which it will not scruple, nor a risk it will not run, even to the chance of its owner being hanged.''* (Thomas Dunning, quoted by Karl Marx in "Das Kapital")
If pirating fish in Senegal waters gives Chinese (or French or whatever) trawlers' 30% profit vs 15% in Chinese waters - Chinese capitalists will do absolutely *everything* possible to bribe and corrupt every possible Senegal authority and there is no way they will be able to resist. This is how *capitalism* works. Has nothing to do with "incompetence".
What do they think how to earn money in Europe without any relevant qualification!?
Welfare and selling drugs to teenagers at the trainstations with the police seeing them and doing nothing because we cant kick them out of germany anyway
They all come here to sell dope on the streets
I love how these Africans literally say their country is selling their resources off but then blame others for taking it.. the illegal Chinese fisherman are the real problem
Ever heard of a thing called corruption? When its rampant and slows your entire life down, all you can do is talk about the injustice you experience. Going out there in the sea to find fish, only to come home empty handed would kill me.
The Chinese are just the johnny come latelies. This is entirely western made.
@@MJ-py7dm okay so why don't you blame the people that are at fault.. not the people that are paying the corrupt African leaders to fish
@@saabajoe how can you say that when the Chinese have been there for over 10 years.. how is it the West fault that the Chinese are literally destroying the oceans and digging illegal mines all over their country.. do your research.. the Chinese literally use Africans like modern-day slave labor

Following the signing of the memorandum of understanding between Senegal and Mauritania on July 21, 2023, the Minister of Fisheries and Maritime Economy handed over 500 licenses to fishermen in St Louis on Monday January 08, 2024.
Make sure locals get these licenses not China.
Its only a matter of time before they become the next Somalian pirate since the same problem Senegal and Somalia have in common is that their water is being invaded by illegal fisherman from big and rich countries. It will be hard trying to convince the youth of Senegal to stay where they see no futures

I used to live there, I wouldn't say it is a peaceful or safe place to live in.
That doesn’t mean you can all just move to the UK to take advantage of their economy, which is currently in a nosedive because of people like you.

Many Africans are Christian. Since Poland is a Catholic Christian nation, you should welcome Africans migrants just like your Pope commands you to.
A world in a crisis with no saviour on sight regrettably globally
Seems like they are demanding a European savior
Allow me to deviate a bit, when I see reporting like this of illegal immigrants. I cannot help but feel privileged to be a South African. You hardly see South Africans illegally migrating to any country if so they would definitely not in majority of illegal migrants.
According to statistics South Africans prefer to stay in South Africa than migrating.
You have a White and Indian infrastructure and economy providing for you
@@Kalagenesis you got it wrong, the current government maintained the old infrastructure and built a lot of new infrastructures. They choose better economic policies.
Indians were never been in power as they are less than 2% of out population
What make South Africa different is that government corruption gets exposed.
Better choice of economic policies matters not race
@@NQA1209 Non Blacks run the economy
You guys r proud people and hardworking.
It’s also a very longgggg journey. Who’s going to take such a long journey when they still have the remaining effects of Europe or occupation in their own land? Better to just stay there and face it. It makes sense to just stay in South Africa and enjoy your privileged life there.
Or as many of them do, go and find work in rich countries.
1.. the force to migrate has come from social media. People are seeing that there are better ways to live. This existed earlier too but peoole can clearly see it on social media now.
2.. the number who perish at sea. I wonder what the ratio to those who suceed is? May not be greater than traffic accident probability. Relying on the sea and leaky boats as your entry barrier wont work for EU.
3.. EU is so weak that they dont gave energy to deport the refused asylum seekers. Everyone knows that so the worst case is you are an illegal but in Europe. Hardly a disincentive.
4.. EU has to step up to stop boats at origin using Force. Then they have to promptly deport 99%. The cases of persuction are well known. Rest are economic migrants.
25000 tons of fish from senegal to the EU is nothing !!!! The UK is 750 000 tons a year of fish to the EU !!!!
From whence the UK plunder 750 000 tonnes of fish?
@@muhammadnawaz5039 it gives
Chinese bottom-trawlers catch an estimated 2.35 million tons of fish a year in West Africa, accounting for 50% of China’s total distant water catch and worth some $5 billion.
Bohoo the UK fishes in French waters too the only difference is the French don’t cry about it all the time.
They should go to China
China hates black people, and everyone else who's not Han-Chinese.
They should develop their own country

i'd like to move to Japan but i can't because i'm not Japanese
it has never been easier to move there than now
You can move to Japan if your not Japanese. Wtf?
I think what he means is you can't just illegally break into Japan and then Japan will support you
you first need a visa to work in Japan
Japan is already one of the oldest countries by age of its people, they do not have enough young people. They should rely on foreigners at some point or their entire economy will collapse soon. and they make it for that reason, very easy for well educated people to enter the country with working visa
Why doesn’t the Senegalese government establish an Economic zone in the sea and stop European and Chinese fishing near its coast?
If it stops illegal immigration a part of the EU will even support it, China will just be pissed but I doubt it will do anything over fish.

Is there part 2..Follow up Atouman Samba please
We have forwarded your suggestion to our editorial team.
Most people wants to stay in their father’ s land but when bandits from foreign lands make it difficult, they have to bounce. They have to survive
this is not the real reason you leave your countries. You have problems much worse than having your coast fished by foreign boats (partly they even pay for it). You have a bad government and no education for women. Educated women do not have that many kids if they cannot sustain them.
Well remember we need to survive too. You are not our problem to fix
Maybe they should show their government. They would do the same if they could, fishing everything empty because it's their job then. Maybe they should also get the notice that every european country has unemployed people too. Why do they think they get a job first? Germany has around 3 million unemployed people, and a lot are migrants. Same in other countries.
I wish Europeans could be more aware of their countries' deliterious fishing practices.
Yes but the Chinese ghost fleets are a much bigger problem as they empty the waters across the entire planet. China needs to be stopped.

They have to create other businesses instead of fishing. Nobody needs fish. The future is plantbased! ;-)
Shhh, you can’t tell them to innovate and think that would mean that they actually make progress
@@SalehSingh44 Many things are changing all over Africa. Also, many people from the diaspora are starting businesses and bringing their skills and knowledge to Africa. Things are improving, but it does take time. But they need to diversify more instead of all having the same kind of jobs. That's how real progress will be made.
@@danziger9996 I agree on the diversified jobs and everything you said. Back home we have same problem, no industries and only farming that drains our water.
A big part I think will be the time frame. Highways take at best 5-10 years for a state in America (pretty big place), but america has a system. It will take time to establish good morals and systems but in that time some ppl will get lazy or see others do well and quit. But I believe in 21st century we will come together and Africa as well will control the prices of their resources.
But why must more powerful nations take that resource from them? Everybody should stop fishing. Worldwide fishing ban.

For those commenting why Muslim migrants and refugees don't move to other Muslim countries. They do. 4 million palestinians are in jordan, millions of Palestinians and Syrians in lebanon, many Libyans in Egypt, Arabs escaping war to Kuwait, Saudi, Qatar.... lots of Iraqis escaping war settle and live in Syria (Yes, Syria!), Millions of Syrians settle in Turkey without moving on to Europe. Indians, Bangladeshis, and Pakistanis basically built the Gulf States and make up a big, big percentage of the settled population.
Because it is much easier for a shared culture to integrate to another shared culture, these minorities are not as visible in the Middle East as they are in Europe. People who do not speak the languages or know about Middle Eastern culture cannot identify a Syrian living in Turkey, or a Palestinian living in Lebanon. But they are there, and they far, far, far outnumber the people who migrate to Europe.
Terrible framing. Where is this energy to investigate + flash emotions about the foreign fishing trawlers that are clearly destroying the Senegalese people's lives and economies/traditions ?
But if u see thr situation is bad why have more kids..I would have 1 like know one..and in the USA is not good either...
I never understood why
birthcontrol hasn't been
an option for the last 30 years ...
It’s a vicious cycle. The reason is, with more kids, they might be able to take care of them when they are old. Putting the burdens on a person is not just possible , especially if the child has a family too.
Excellent reporting. It is sad to see the corruption of the Senegalese government that is starving its people. But I hope everyone understands that this is a secondary issue. The main problem is global overpopulation.
Please France ask women to have more kids in 2024
No. It's greed of some.
That false ,,, countries with higher population then Senegal are doing great ...
absolutely right. That ist the main problem. If people only had the number of children, they can sustain properly there would be no overpopulation. But you need education and opportunities for the women.
The world is a cycle
😢😢Total agree.
Not really. Africa was never contributor or will not contribute. Taking these immigrants will rot the host
