Abstract
NEW CHALLENGES IN COMBATING MIGRANT SMUGGLING IN THE EUROPEAN UNIONMigrant smuggling is an international crime that threatens people’s lives, violates fundamental rights and disrupts the proper management of migration flows. Preventing and combating migrant smuggling is one of the important elements of the EU’s migration policy. The EU has been taking initiatives to combat this practice for many years. The article presents current legal and policy solutions that are used to combat migrant smuggling. In addition, the new legislation that the European Commission presented in November 2023 is also presented. The aim of these new proposals is to update and strengthen existing regulations to address new challenges posed by the continuously evolving modus operandi of smugglers. While the Union has taken significant steps in recent years in preventing and combating migrant smuggling, new challenges continue to emerge, necessitating intensified efforts and a renewed comprehensive approach in addition to the existing challenges.
