Abstract
The set of policies and practices implemented by the European Union in North Macedonia in subject of prevention of illegal migration and fight against smuggling of migrants, have been evaluated by both the EU and North Macedonia as successful tools in tackling migration challenges. However, international organizations and local NGOs, have observed systematic practices of migrant pushbacks and violence on borders in particular on the Greek-Macedonian border, where police officials of EU Member States and Frontex officials have been recognized as being involved in the acts of alleged violence. These episodes have raised serious concerns about the observance of human rights of migrants and asylum seekers of the EU’s Border Agency and put into question the entirety of EU’s asylum and migration system whatsoever. On these grounds the purpose of this contribution is to examine EU’s policy and practices on prevention of illegal migration and fight against smuggling of migrants in North Macedonia against the background of international human right obligations meaning the respect of the principle of non-refoulment and the observance of the rule of law.
