It's time to translate the promise of migration into meaningful actions. As the Hemispheric Conference on Regular Pathways on Labor Migration begins, let's take advantage of the opportunities that safe, regular and orderly migration brings for economic growth and development.

In our Op-ed, @FilippoGrandi and I call for cooperation and responsibility-sharing between governments in providing opportunities to vulnerable migrants and refugees. An approach focused mainly on deterrence will continue to fail.

The Global Immigration System Is Failing. There's a Better Way

Two years ago, a devastating fire destroyed parts of the Cox’s Bazar refugee camp. Today, I was able to cut the ribbon on the newly restored Infectious Disease Treatment Center, thanks to the generous support of the @WorldBank .

Today I held an inspirational meeting with the talented team at @OIM_Mexico . Every day, we work together to protect migrants, providing safe and regular pathways – and breaking the hold of criminals who exploit those on the move.

Pleased to participate in the Italy-Africa conference in Rome with so many heads of States coming from Africa, and with EU and UN representatives. Improved cooperation between Europe & Africa is strongly needed to implement development policies, and create more legal pathways.

My thoughts are with people in Türkiye, Syria, Lebanon, the Palestinian Territories, Jordan and all those affected following the deadly earthquake last night. We will be working closely with governments in the region to support those affected and help alleviate their suffering.
