‘Extremely complex legislation: Can they agree on common rules to manage migration together?”

William Hilderbrandt is pleased to welcome Camille Le Coz. Director of the Migration Policy Institute of Europe.

After more than a decade of negotiations, the pact seeks to reconcile competing imperatives: strengthening border management, accelerating asylum procedures, ensuring greater coordination among member states, and rebuilding trust within a fragmented European system.
