"Several parts of the report on neighbourhood policy stress that we should facilitate immigration from countries bordering the Member States. According to the rapporteurs, we must improve conditions for the entry of legal migrants into Europe and facilitate immigration itself by concluding mobility partnerships which take proper account of the demographic, social and occupational situation in both the country of origin and the country of destination.
Moreover, we should view immigration as an opportunity, and not so much in terms of its possible repercussions on security. We therefore ought to facilitate entry visa liberalisation with a view to moving towards freedom of movement, acting in any case so as to make the issue of visas as easy as possible.
The basic principle, namely, that immigration must be seen as an opportunity, regardless of the repercussions on security and the socio-economic fabric of our countries, is one that I cannot agree with. I am also opposed to the basic policy proposed by the report, which aims to facilitate the issue of visas and entry procedures into Europe for immigrants from bordering and neighbour countries. I am therefore voting against the report."@en1
