Tunisia's president Kais Saied is under fire once again, after he made comments about Black African migrants.
He said, there is a plot to replace Tunisia's Arab and Islamic identity by bringing people from other countries to the region.
Many have strongly condemned the comments as racist and xenophobic.
Thousands of African migrants travel through Tunisia and other North African countries on their way to attempt the dangerous crossing to Europe.
So, how are they treated in those countries?
