Togo denounces discrimination at Ukraine’s borders

The Minister of Foreign Affairs of Togo, Prof. Robert Dussey has also spoken about the cases of racial discrimination reported at the Ukrainian borders while some African students residing in the country at war have difficulty finding shelter in neighboring countries of Ukraine.

“No one should prevent Africans because of the color of their skin from leaving Ukraine for another country. No to racism and yes to respect for human dignity. The government with the support of HCTE delegates assists our compatriots”, declared the head of Togolese diplomacy.



Indeed, in many videos circulating on social media, blacks complain of being discriminated against by Ukrainians in train stations, giving priority to their citizens fleeing the war vis-à-vis blacks.

In other videos posted by Nigerian students, border guards on the Polish border can be seen threatening to shoot a group of Nigerians who wanted to enter the country. Eventually they ended up being allowed to enter Poland after they kept chanting “We are students”.

While the Polish authorities continue to deny these unfortunate black experiences, the subject was discussed at the UN Security Council on Monday. The African countries present at yesterday’s meeting denounced these behaviors and called on their UN body to act.

À l’époque de l’URSS l’État garantissait le sécurité des étudiants étrangers notamment africains au nom de la solidarité entre les peuples progressistes. Même si les gens étaient racistes, on en souffrait pas.

That’s what u got when you run everywhere begging for money and assistance. U lose your dignity and people see nothing in you other than sh*t. Wake up, take your destiny in your own hand, try the max to develop your own country with less to none assistance. Stop begging for unnecessary assistance. Meanwhile is that treatment different than what you guys allow foreign residents to do to our brothers and sisters in our motherland? Clean your own house first.

Mr Robert Dussey and his boss Faure Gnassingbe are proper phoneys at best and laughable at worst. All they is jump on other ppl bandwagons. They are too afraid to take the leadership on any sensitive subject.
Indeed they must clean their own house first before asking for cleanliness in other people s house. Period

Thanks my friend. Robert Dussey forgets the fact that the government in which he is serving as Foreign minister is worst for Togolese people who they kill everyday than racism. I condemn anyway the racism our African people are facing in UKRAIN and all over the world. May God help and protect you my brothers and sisters.

Togo-Yacoubou Moutawakilou, condamné à mort et exécuté pour son engagement pour le Togo

Depuis ce triste jour du 13 janvier 1963 où Sylvanius Olympio fut assassiné, tous ceux qui ont essayé d´affronter la dictature en se mettant sur son chemin, furent impitoyablement éliminés. La liste de tous ces martyrs, assassinés d´une façon ou d´une autre, est longue. Les nombreuses tentatives depuis le début des années ´90 pour humaniser le pouvoir d´état et le rendre aux Togolais, n´ont pas pu résister à la terreur militaire, seule légitimité de la dictature du père en fils.
