[Breitbart] Tunisian President Kais Saied has been criticised for stating that mass illegal immigration is a "criminal enterprise" directed toward changing the demographics of his country.
President Saied made his comments this week at a meeting of the country’s National Security Council, calling for action to deal with the influx of illegal immigrants arriving from sub-Saharah Africa, which he labelled as "hordes."
The Tunisian leader went on to blame illegals for being a source of violence, crime and "unacceptable acts", stating that illegal migration was a "criminal enterprise hatched at the beginning of this century to change the demographic composition of Tunisia," newspaper Le Figaro reports.
According to President Saied, mass illegal immigration risked transforming Tunisia, which is also a major departure point for illegals looking to reach Europe, into an "African only" country and changing its "Arab-Muslim" character. |
