The Tunisian Forum for Economic and Social Rights has reacted to President Kais Saied’s comments accusing sub-Saharan African migrants of causing crime while posing a demographic threat.
The spokesman for the rights group, Romdhane Ben Amor accused the President of racism and hate speech demanding an immediate end to the systematic campaign against sub-Saharan migrants and the release of those detained.
The group urged the president to launch a thorough administrative process through which illegal sub-Saharan migrants can regulate their situation.
