UN General Assembly - Sputnik International

On December 10, 164 countries adopted the Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration. The pact represents the international community's attempt to establish a common global approach to all aspects of international migration. It comprises 23 objectives for better managing migration at local, national, regional, and global levels.

The United Nations General Assembly is holding a meeting to adopt a resolution to endorse the Migration Pact.
