Policies on irregular migrants - Volume II: Republic of Armenia, Greece and Russian Federation (2008)
The insecurity which irregular migrants face on a daily basis, due to the unlawfulness of their residence, prompted the European Committee on Migration (CDMG) to assess their situation in Council of Europe member states. The aim of the exercice was to pool and evaluate national experiences and to draw up proposals on dealing with irregular migrants and improving co-operation between countries of origin and host countries.
Five countries volunteered - Armenia, Germany, Greece, Italy and the Russian Federation - and submitted certain aspects of their national policies on the situation of irregular migrants for evaluation.
After volume I, which contains a summary of the project and the national reports of Italy and Germany, volume II looks at the situation of irregular migrants in Armenia, Greece and the Russian Federation.
