It is crucial to develop a true picture of immigration in the various countries making up the European Union and we should, therefore, support all initiatives, in particular in line with UN recommendations, that promote knowledge of this extremely important situation, which encompasses situations of unacceptable and inhuman humiliation and exploitation such as trafficking in human beings or the exploitation of a labour force that has no rights whatsoever. This situation needs to be better understood, so that we can better combat its underlying causes, which are social injustices and inequalities or wars and all those who exploit these, particularly those who take advantage of the countless people in an ‘illegal’ situation.
We must understand the situation, but only in order to provide meaningful support for the victims of criminal networks – men, women and children who are simply fighting for an opportunity, for the right to have a better life. It is another matter to use this necessary effort to communitarise immigration policy, by proposing, as the report does, to establish ‘binding European legislation’. It is another matter altogether to get a picture of the reality to strengthen the implementation of today’s repressive immigration policies, in order to create a ‘Fortress Europe’. This is something that we reject."@en1
