First of all, local African chiefs were responsible for most of the slave trade. And secondly, the Arabs shipped far more slaves than the Europeans ever managed. The Europeans are being made the scapegoats, since their slaves survived and multiplied in number. The descendants are now demanding repatriations. On the other hand, the Arabs mostly enslaved young African women and boys, to be used as sex slaves. These slaves were killed once they got sick. There are no descendants of these slaves and therefore no one demands repatriations from the Arabs.
BTW, the Crimean Tatars enslaved more than 10 million Russians and Ukrainians, until the Russian empire conquered Crimea in the 18th century. Those slaves were treated much worse than the Africans. Also, the Barbary pirates enslaved many millions of Southern Europeans. What about the repatriations for these people?
