He also spoke about ‘our’ longing to belong, and how ‘we’ must be part of the solution.

Then, back in Europe, he revels in threatening his EU counterparts with deadlines and the veto if they do not do what he dictates, and he asks for more resources. He does so while he sells Maltese and EU citizenship and passports to shady persons from shady countries at the rate of euro 650,000 per passport, without any contribution to the EU.

At the UN, reading from the teleprompter to his left, he said that immigration is not somebody else’s problem. (With hindsight, I don’t know if the teleprompter on his right had a different version).

In NY, he had a golden opportunity to tell Mr. John William Ashe, current President of the General Assembly – who incidentally comes from Antigua and Barbuda – that the UN should police the ports of Libya. And that he did not want to build a cemetry in the Mediterranean, although his government had issued a call for expressions of interest for land reclamation.

But he did not say anything of this sort, did he?

And did he tell US Presidents Obama and Clinton – with whom he posed for pictures which the government reported as “meetings” – that “we are not a military superpower,” as he sarcastically told CNN?

The hypocrite.

Muscat is proposing that the UN should police Libyan ports.

I am not an expert on foreign affairs, but isn’t this suggesting interference with the sovereignty of Libya?

Joseph Muscat decided to be prudent when the UN approved intervention in Libya to protect Libyans from the atrocities of Gaddafi. If I understand well, now he wants the UN to interfere in Libya to perpetuate the atrocities against non-Libyan migrants by keeping them locked up in Libyan territory where their rights are far from guaranteed.

This is unbelievable.

Besides, should the UN also police the ports of Syria so that the Syrians do not escape the conflict in their country and they remain trapped in there?

And why shouldn’t the UN police all borders of all those countries where people are escaping, like Somalia, Erithrea, Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, Pakistan, Sri Lanka?
