France Plans Asylum Hotspots In Libya





    France says it plans to set up hotspots in Libya to process asylum seekers, in a bid to stem the flow of migrants to Europe.

   President Emmanuel Macron said the move would stop people not eligible for asylum from taking crazy risks.
He said the  centres would be ready this summer. President Emmanuel Macron said that between 800,000 and a million people were currently in camps in Libya hoping to get into Europe. He said many of them did not have a right to asylum.
   The French leader said that migrants were destabilizing Libya and Europe by fuelling people-smuggling, which in turn funded terrorism.
