Trans Mediterranean Migration Forum
At the Trans Mediterranean Migration Forum held Wednesday (17 July), which included participation from Libya’s neighbouring countries and from the EU, Malta’s Prime Minister remarked during a panel discussion that immigration needs to be part of a very important discussion on the strategic relations between Europe and countries in North Africa, such as Libya.

He insisted on the importance of having a holistic approach and an effective strategy that involves countries of origin and transit. While border management is an immediate priority to prevent human smuggling, long-term goals are also required to address the motives behind people’s attempt to take perilous journeys, he added.
