At the same time, we must be honest about what works and what does not and what causes more harm than good, both for the migrants and for the receiving countries. In 2023, over 2 000 people died trying to cross the Mediterranean. This is a horrific number, but it highlights the flaws of the current system.

Studying history allows us to understand the past and learn from the mistakes made by previous generations. History provides... 26/06/2024 | 12:24:38 Mister President, dear colleagues, We are living in extraordinary times in Europe. Russia's attack on Ukraine has fundamentally and permanently altered our operating environment. As Ukraine fights for its very existence and for our joint values, there is no indication that the situation is changing. In Finland, as elsewhere, we have had to view this matter very seriously.
