Brussels, 05/11/2015 (Agence Europe) - On the sidelines of the Asia-Europe Meeting (ASEM) in Luxembourg on Thursday 5 November, High Representative of the EU for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Federica Mogherini and Pakistan's National Security and Foreign Affairs Adviser Sartaj Aziz agreed to cooperate on managing migration flows from Pakistan to the EU.
The meeting was “a very positive one. We already have a bilateral agreement between the EU and Pakistan for return and re-admission. The point is the smooth implementation of the agreements. I found readiness and willingness to cooperate in an operational way and to make sure that returns are happening for real. This is something we will follow up in the coming weeks to make sure that this happens”, Mogherini said at the end of the meeting - which also covered the security situation in Afghanistan.
