Von der Leyen offers Egypt and Libya funding to curb Sudanese migration
Original: Von der Leyen pledges more cash for Egypt and Libya regimes to keep Sudanese genocide victims out of Europe
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has pledged additional funding to Egypt and Libya, in a move critics say is designed to stop people fleeing Sudan from reaching Europe. Sudan's war has driven mass displacement and been described by some as genocidal, and the pledge has drawn criticism that the EU is outsourcing border control to countries with poor human rights records.
Why now: The EU is facing criticism over paying authoritarian governments to block refugees escaping Sudan's war.
