North Africa migrant flow slows


00:55 |

North Africa migrant flow slows: "The number of North African migrants trying to reach Europe has fallen significantly in the past few days because of choppy seas and stronger law enforcement in Tunisia, the head of the European Union's border control agency said Friday.

Frontex director Ilkka Laitinen also told The Associated Press in an interview that Tunisians who arrived illegally on the Italian island of Lampedusa in recent weeks are being slowly returned home. He said his Warsaw-based agency has also seen a reverse flow, with North Africans in Europe returning home - possibly to play a role in the uprisings or new political systems being established there."
