Belgium is one of the smallest countries in Europe, however, its colonial rule in Africa defines how such a small country had an enormous appetite to decimate millions of Africans in Congo with impunity. Frankly speaking, Belgium’s colonial crime in Congo is shocking

Who hasn’t heard of King Leopold II of Belgium? He killed over 10 million Congolese and he was honored with statues and many streets named after him in Belgium, yet there is no statue of Hitler for killing six million Jews.

Racial discrimination against Africans is endemic in Belgium’s institutions and the nation needs to apologize for the crimes committed during its colonization of Congo and make reparations, U.N. experts said Monday.

Belgium’s actions in Congo have long been criticized as one of the worst examples of colonial abuse. The Writer, Adam Hochschild alleged in his 1998 book ‘King Leopold’s Ghost’ that Leopold reigned over the mass deaths of millions of Congolese.

“The root causes of present-day human rights violations lie in the lack of recognition of the true scope of the violence and injustice of colonization,” the U.N. Working Group of Experts on People of African Descent said in an interim report on Belgium.

King Leopold’s reign over Congo from 1885 to 1908 was notorious for its brutality. After Leopold handed over Congo to the Belgian state, the tiny nation continued to hold sway over an area 80 times its size half a world away until Congo became independent in 1960.

The UN group says racism in Belgium continues today. This is not an exaggeration because if a country doesn’t support crimes against humanity, why should they keep a statue of Leopold, someone that committed such heinous crimes against humanity?

“We are concerned about the human rights situation of people of African descent in Belgium who experience racism and racial discrimination,” it said. “There is clear evidence that racial discrimination is endemic in institutions in Belgium.”

Wicked people! I hope he’s sleeping well sha

What will their apology do for the Africans they brutalized?

Watch how the European country will apologize and make conciliatory moves. Nigeria's innumerable atrocities against her citizens in '66 and various war crimes in '67-'70 and continuous brutality to this day in the East yet goes unattended. And zombies want peace. You all have not seen anything.

African past leaders, especially Nigerian current leaders should be the ones apologizing for their inhuman, animalistic crimes and atrocities they are committing against the vulnerable and hapless citizens. The corruption, genocide and religious damaged they are performing.

What about England
