African Leaders Upset on EU Immigration Proposals

This is not surprising if you were running a country whose economy, because of European colonialism, was a basket case, and remittances from illegal aliens in Europe were keep said economy afloat, you would condemn stricter immigration rules too.

The basic facts are these: A nation has a right to control the flow of immigration into that country, and the goal of immigration should be no illegal immigration.

If these goals were focused on, as opposed having the discussion devolving into a fight between open borders "jobs we won't do" types and racist nativists, then policy and enforcement would be both more effective and more humane, because it would focus on the employers of illegals, as opposed to use of state security forces to harass illegal aliens.
