Abstract
Migration policy is one of the competences that the European Union shares with Member States. Its main objective is to ensure the balanced approach to legal and illegal migration. Pursuant to Articles 79 and 80 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU) the EU has the right to take action aimed at the management of legal migration, whereby it is for Member States to decide on the number of migrant workers admitted to their territory. Since 2005 the EU has been implementing the Global Approach to Migration and Mobility which implies broad cooperation between Member States and sending countries in the field of migration. One of the elements of this approach is mobility partnerships which are special agreements between Member States and third countries concerning the management of population flows. These declarations are to improve migration management, to fight illegal migration and to promote legal migration to the EU. This article examines and evaluates declarations already signed and is an attempt to answer the question to what extent mobility partnerships may contribute to the growth of legal migration to the EU.References
