Illegal migration and human trafficking in Tunisia

Tunisian President Kais Said has called for mobilizing efforts to counter criminal networks involved in illegal migration and human trafficking.

According to the president, the financial turnover of criminal networks involved in "illegal migration, forced displacement and human trafficking is estimated at $150 billion annually and these networks threaten 25 million people worldwide." "Only international coordinated regulation of illegal migration can change the situation," the Tunisian leader emphasized.
