国际英语资讯:Interview: Egypt on right path in fighting illegal immigration: Egyptian official

The official expressed dissatisfaction at the level of regional and international cooperation regarding illegal immigration, saying that the problem of illegal immigration can be countered only by real cooperation and improving the conditions in developing countries as well as solving the political feuds in the Middle East.

"Solving the Libyan and Syrian crises will decrease the illegal immigration. That is why the international community, especially permanent members of the UN Security Council, should reach a settlement to these conflicts," she said.

Gabr said the international support might not be enough to help ease the burden several countries bear to accommodate the growing number of migrants.

"We stand ready to enhance our engagement with international donors and financial institutions to mobilize additional resources for developmental projects with immediate bearing on youth susceptible to illegal migration in Egypt and elsewhere," she said.

The NCCPIM is an inter-ministerial entity bringing together 19 relevant ministries and national human rights agencies, with an institutional structure and a clear mandate to champion and coordinate national efforts to combat and curb illegal migration.
