EU/Africa: Migreurop statement on the EU's migration policy as supportive of dictatorships

On 22 February 2011, Migreurop issued a statement highlighting how the EU's migration policy has effectively resulted in support for dictatorial regimes, arguing that in the light of recent events it must make a choice as to whether its avowed principles of "defence of democracy" and support for human rights are mere rhetoric, or whether it is ready to rise to this historic moment and "open a new era in the relations between the European Union and its Mediterranean neighbours".

The European Union's migration policy: support for dictatorships to the south of the Mediterranean
Jusqu'à quand la politique migratoire de l'Union européenne, va-t-elle s'appuyer sur les dictatures du sud de la Méditerranée?
¿Hasta cuándo la política migratoria de la Unión Europea va a apoyarse en las dictaduras del sur del Mediterráneo?
