Europe's 'Migrant Crisis': Tunisia Gets Another Cheque to Stop The Brown People
The story paints a grim picture: migrants caught between a desperate journey to Europe and increasingly hostile Tunisian authorities. ("Trapped in Tunisia", Al Jazeera, Oct 4, 2025 – projected date means we assume news story and critique it as if it were real ). What the report neglects to underline is the European Union's role in weaponizing humanitarian aid. In 2023, the EU pledged over €1
billion to Tunisia, including €105 million specifically for 'border management'—a euphemism for paying nations to block migrants from reaching European shores. This isn't charity; it's outsourcing human rights violations. So, while Al Jazeera documents the suffering, they gloss over the fact that Europe isn't just watching; it's actively funding the very 'traps' these migrants fall into. Brussels
gets to appear 'concerned' while maintaining its 'Fortress Europe' facade. One might wonder how many more billions will be required before the 'crisis' is contained, or rather, before the EU runs out of countries willing to do its dirty work.
