Republic of Congo: Sassou Nguesso on Drowning Migrants · Global Voices

Says Senegalese blogger Semett (Fr) of Denis Sassou N'Guesso, the President of the Republic of Congo: ” Interrogated on the drowning of young Africans along European borders, (…) [he] had the indecency to shed a tear after blaming Europe's lack of care. As if the misery that pushes our compatriots to seek the liquid death was not the result of a handshake between him, his peers and Western predators since our independences.”
