French President Emmanuel Macron has described the enslavement of African migrants in Libya as a “crime against humanity”.
He was speaking in Ouagadougou, the capital of Burkina Faso, in a speech broadcast live by French state-funded broadcaster Radio France Internationale.
He said he would propose a strategy for “Africa and Europe to come together to the rescue of the people in danger in Libya” during the African Union-European Union summit in the Ivorian capital on 29 November.
President Macron arrived in Burkina Faso yesterday at the start of a three day African tour which will also take him to Ivory Coast and Ghana.
