Immigrants in Djibouti
Djibouti is a small country located in the Horn of Africa, bordered by Eritrea, Ethiopia, and Somalia. While it is not a major destination for immigration, there are still some immigrants in Djibouti, both documented and undocumented.
Many of the immigrants in Djibouti come from neighboring countries such as Somalia, Ethiopia, and Eritrea. Some of them come to Djibouti to seek asylum due to conflicts or persecution in their home countries. Others come to Djibouti in search of better economic opportunities, as Djibouti is a hub for international trade and commerce due to its strategic location near the Red Sea.
There are also some immigrants in Djibouti from other countries, such as Yemen and Sudan. Some of them come to Djibouti as part of migrant smuggling operations, while others come to seek employment or as refugees.
The government of Djibouti has established policies and procedures to manage immigration in the country. However, there are concerns about the treatment of immigrants, particularly those who are undocumented or seeking asylum. Human rights organizations have reported instances of abuse, detention, and deportation of immigrants in Djibouti, particularly those from neighboring countries.
