    "content": ", you will see Africans trying to cross the Mediterranean and making very dangerous journeys. One of the things we have identified is the issue of Africans attempting to get to Europe, which is insignificant compared to the global trend on migration that comes from Asia, Middle East and central Asian republics that used to be in the former Soviet satellite. For that reason, it is in the interest of both Europe and Africa that migration can be a good thing. In Africa, we have population dividend. We have young educated and skilled manpower while they are experiencing a population decline. It is important to have a negotiated framework where skilled labour can be imported and exported to the other side so that the idea of thinking that migration is bad can be put to an end. Take for example Kenya, currently, many of our young nationals are going to Middle East; United Arab Emirates, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia. Many of them are going to skill-based jobs where they are recruited nationally and those particular skills are identified. Even for Europe, it is important and that is why the ACP-EU Joint Parliamentary Assembly considered that the migration trend, although there is attempt to control it, once it is structured, can be a force for good."
