NOTES

1. Ghadaffi recruited many sub-Saharan African men to become soldiers in this conflict.

2. In 1975, sixteen West African states signed the first ECOWAS treaty; four years later these states adopted the protocol related to the Free Movement of Persons, Residence and Establishment.

3. Trans-Saharan travellers are asked to pay some few thousand CFA francs extra for these dubious military services. A Dutch journalist estimated that about a third of the expenditure of mobility facilitators in Agadez is spent on bribing policemen and convoy protection services provided by the Nigerien military (Vermeulen 2016).

4. This reminds me of the expression used by a representative of Pro Asyl – a German refugee rights advocacy group – who stated: ‘The closer you get to Europe, the more illegal you become’.

5. To respect the tactics of people that are caught at the Greek islands, I deliberately do not reveal the exact ways he managed to escape.
