先日、セネガルの漁船が漂流してましたが、その後追い記事。どうも親族4人がその一隻の船に乗ってたそうで、ひとりは「あー、おれ、しぬ。だめだ。おまえらはいきててくれよな」と言い残して死に、ひとりは夜間、いつのまにか消え去り、一人は救助してくれるかもしれない船をみて、それに行き着こうと海に入ってそのまま消え去り―。
BBC Four sons set out on a perilous migration route. Only one came home 3 Sep 2023 By Joel Gunter
…で、故郷に帰れば、そりゃあ死んだ仲間たちの家族たちからは責められるわな。
これは一カ月ほど前か、pirougueというセネガル式の漁船で漂流していた一団に関するお話。
「Adama and Moussa Sarr had lost track of the exact number of days they had been at sea.
The brothers were drifting somewhere off the coast of West Africa, in a traditional Senegalese fishing canoe known as a pirogue. They were two of 39 passengers in total - all malnourished, many close to death.
When a fishing vessel appeared in the distance one day, Adama, 21, was so weak he could only stare, he said. Moussa, 17, slipped into the water to swim.
He would almost certainly have drowned, had the fishing crew not spotted him in the water and plucked him to safety.
When they drew alongside the pirogue, they found Adama and the rest of the survivors and seven bodies. The pirogue had set out from Senegal five weeks earlier, with 101 souls on board.」
漁船は近づいてきて。やあやあ、助かったなお前ら！とでも声をかけたか。それに「弟は？」とくらいは言っただろうか。何のことだ？と返答されただろう。それが弟がこの世から消え去ったことの明らかな証拠なのだ。
地中海と違って大西洋のこのあたりには碌々監視の目がない。とすると、まあ熟練の海の男なら、なんとかカナリーやケープヴェルデに…行き着ければいいんだけどね…という…。
「Unlike the Mediterranean, there are no patrols on the North Atlantic route - no-one proactively searching for lost or distressed boats. It is easy to founder without being seen. If you miss the Canaries, or Cape Verde, you can drift into the Atlantic and disappear.」
そんなに遠洋漁業に適した船でもなかろうよ。なので、たぶん相当数がそのまま大西洋に消えている。2020年1月以来、68000人がCanary Islandsに届いているそうだが、まあ2700名くらいかな死者・行方不明者はというのが国際機関の見立て。しかしそれは、認知された限りの数字じゃねえかなあ、というのが…恐らく統計採ってる当人達にも自明なものかと。
「On the pirogue, the four men from the family stuck together, but they were growing weaker and weaker. The eldest cousin, Pape, died first, Adama said. "Before he passed, he said, 'If death must happen, I wish that I die and you three survive'."
Then Adama's younger cousin, Amsoutou, disappeared. One morning they woke up and Amsoutou was simply gone.
Adama and Moussa hung on, sipping seawater and baking under the sun. Each night they looked for lights from the Canary Islands but the lights never appeared.」
「 "Macky Sall sold the ocean," said Assane Niang, a 23-year-old fishing captain, referring to the Senegalese president. Fishermen in Fass Boye say the government has granted too many licences to foreign trawlers, which overfish their waters and deplete the catch.」
なんでこんなざまか。Machy Sallが海を売ったんだという。政府が遠洋漁業の権利を外国の会社に売り払い、それらが漁獲しすぎて漁業自体を破壊している、というわけだ。
「According to the International Organisation for Migration, about 68,000 people have successfully reached the Canary Islands by boat from West Africa since January 2020 and about 2,700 have been recorded dead or disappeared. But the number of casualties is likely significantly higher, because fatal accidents are more likely to go unrecorded on this route.」
だから地元で食っていけず、危険を冒して違法移民の道に賭ける者たちがでてくる。そして結構な割合で滅ぶ。無事にヨーロッパに行き着いても、ヨーロッパ基準でいい生活ができるとは…とても期待できない。
肥え太るのは違法移民業者くらいだろうか。かなり詰んでるな、これ…？ という、そんな記事。
