to what the attitudes are that are being stoked by political leaders like viktor 0rban and matteo salvininot legitimate to be concerned about migration? no, i think it absolutely should, and i think that ratherjust dealing with north african countries, as nesrine was talking about, i wait for the eu summit where the organisation of african unity has a full seat at the table to discuss this, because most of the migrants are coming from sub—saharan africa or from the horn of africa. they end up in north africa for embarkation. and i think that when you talk of a regional settlement, it has to be almost — it has to be, you know, well down as far as nigeria, at least, in order to begin to get some coordination and just to deter people and to break up the gangs that go into the villages and say, "oh, you can go to europe, give me $10,000," and then they end up drowning in the middle of the mediterranean. yes, and it is still the people smugglers who benefit in that way, and that is an issue that we've barely touched on. let'sjust, though, we must turn to other matters discussed at the summit,
