MELILLA - In June 2022, dozens of people were killed when a large group attempted to storm the border fence near the Spanish exclave of Melilla in Morocco. European leaders are particularly keen to stop migrants, and to that end, they are turning to Morocco, among others.

Photojournalist Brecht De Vleeschauwer visited the EU's Moroccan waiting room to hear the stories of people from Chad and Sudan who had fled their countries in search of a better future in the European Union, as well as Moroccans.
