    "content": "The issue of refugees was discussed at length in this meeting. This issue has been with us since time immemorial. The first slaves were taken involuntarily to the US and South America by the whites. Many blacks were also taken to the Middle East to work as slaves. But what we are facing at the moment are economic refugees or migrants and refugees that are running away from persecution in their countries. I am happy the meeting dealt with the plight of refugees. You will find that most refugees have their rights trampled upon in the destinations they arrive. But it is nice that these issues are being highlighted so that the world can come to know and the rights of refugees are respected. Women who travel across the Mediterranean into Europe find themselves in a tricky position. They are turned into prostitutes along the way and at their final destination. I am happy that the plight of these refuges and migrants has been highlighted so that the receiving countries can ensure that the rights of these human beings and their dignity are upheld.
