It is the search for a different future that moves people to leave.<\/p>\n<p>This aspiration has often been manipulated and exploited for other purposes. We see it today at the Spanish border, just as we have seen it elsewhere in the past: from Albania in the 1990s to the migration routes crossing Libya and Tunisia.<\/p>\n<p>Addressing this phenomenon in a pragmatic and systemic way requires <strong>ambition and long-term policy choices<\/strong> on the part of the European Union and, above all, its Member States.<\/p>\n<p data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\">This calls for a change of perspective on three crucial fronts:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Development in countries of origin: <\/strong>Investing in and fostering growth in countries of origin will not magically \u201cbring migration flows to zero\u201d. Rather, it means supporting the aspirations and skills that lead people to invest legally and effectively in their own future and in ours.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Tackling the informal and illegal economy:<\/strong> In Italy and across Europe, we must move beyond tolerating economic models that operate outside the rules and thrive on exploitation. Treating respect for rights and compliance with the rules as a \u201cthreat to competitiveness\u201d is a strategic mistake. Genuine growth comes from bringing undeclared work into the formal economy and promoting regular, lawful inclusion. Our economic and social systems, as well as the quality of our civic life, have a tremendous need for this.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Strategic autonomy and externalisation:<\/strong> The sovereignty of individual States and the EU\u2019s strategic autonomy cannot be built by delegating border management to third-country regimes. Relying on external actors to secure our borders means handing them leverage that they will always be ready to use in pursuit of their own interests.<br \/>\n<h5><\/h5>\n<h4>Treating migration as a perpetual \u201cemergency\u201d to be managed through political shortcuts and by fuelling fear does not work.
