What is the International Organization for Migration? Why did China propose to join at this time?

Hello, according to expert analysis, in June 20001,China became an observer country of the International Organization for Migration, and the two sides started good cooperation.

In 2006, the two sides signed an agreement and the International Organization for Migration set up a liaison office in Beijing.

In 2007, with the approval of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Public Security and the Ministry of Labor, China cooperated with the International Organization for Migration and the International Labour Organization to carry out a project to build China's immigration management capacity. Project activities mainly include holding seminars, training, investigation and publicity. , involving entry and exit management policies and regulations, administrative system construction, travel document inspection, and management of domestic and foreign employment agencies. The project was successfully completed on June 20 10. 20 1 1 In April, the second phase of China's immigration management capacity-building project was launched in Beijing, and China continued to strengthen cooperation with the International Organization for Migration in the field of immigration management. The second phase of the project lasts for three years, with a budget of 2 million euros, mainly funded by the European Union, and jointly implemented by the International Organization for Migration, the International Labour Organization, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Public Security, the Ministry of Civil Affairs and the Ministry of Commerce of China. Through the exchange of technology, information and personnel, the project will further deepen China and Europe's understanding of each other's immigration management systems and promote bilateral cooperation in the field of immigration.

On June 16, Vice Foreign Minister of China met with the Director-General of the International Organization for Migration, and pointed out three areas for further cooperation with the International Organization for Migration: capacity building and regional border control, disaster prevention and disaster management; Immigrant integration.

It should be said that China's accession to the International Organization for Migration is the general trend.

Apart from cooperation on immigration, joining international organizations, contributing China's wisdom to international issues and expanding China's international influence are important contents of China's diplomacy as a big country. The International Organization for Migration also welcomes China to join. On June 13, the website of the International Organization for Migration released a message welcoming China's application to join the International Organization for Migration. "China's membership is crucial to enhancing the global influence of the International Organization for Migration."

China chose the opportunity of the Director-General of the International Organization for Migration's visit to China to submit his application, which may be mainly due to two considerations.

First of all, the Council of the International Organization for Migration (IOM) will be held in Geneva on June 30th, and representatives of IOM member countries will consider and approve the organization's application to join the United Nations. Once the International Organization for Migration (IOM) becomes a formal organization of the United Nations, China will propose to join, and the procedures will become cumbersome.

On the other hand, it may also be related to the situation in the Taiwan Strait. After the new leader of Taiwan Province Province took office, many people worried that the "diplomatic truce" between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait would be broken. If the mainland submits the application in time, it can also take precautions to better prevent "trouble" in Taiwan Province Province.
