The European Commission is increasingly focused on managing irregular migration flows at borders and establishing common rules for their governance. As part of this effort, the EU intends to strengthen support and cooperation with North African countries, particularly Morocco. Ursula von der Leyen, President of the European Commission, confirmed this in a recent communication. This move reflects a growing European interest in externalizing migration management. The new policy aims to create a more coordinated approach to addressing migration challenges. Morocco is viewed as a crucial partner in implementing these new strategies, signaling a shift towards greater collaboration with regional actors. The details of the enhanced cooperation are still emerging, but the emphasis is on a joint approach to border control and migration management.
