The contributions gathered in this report show that the serious shortcomings demonstrated by the EU migration and asylum policy are interrelated and could be overcome by returning to the common values that underpin them in the
Treaty on EU:

Regulating immigration is legitimate but requires speaking the truth and relying on a sense of solidarity between countries as well as on the part of citizens to achieve integration. Illegal immigration must be combated, but this means making the European rights open to international labour mobility clear. Similarly, the full exercise of the fundamental freedom of movement within the European Union cannot be achieved without an effective convergence of national asylum policies. Such a perspective requires the establishment of trust and solidarity between the Member States, a condition that for the time being can only be achieved through differentiated integration.
