The example of Russia Sample Clauses

The example of Russia. The simultaneous conclusion of the visa facilitation agreement and the readmission agreement between the EU and Russia are a clear illustration of the linkage between visa facilitation and readmission. The European Union was not blind for the impact the eastward enlargement could have on migration from Russia.72 Although Russia was already a neighbour of the EU, sharing a border with Finland, the enlargement of the Union considerably expanded the border between Russia and the EU, with Poland and Lithuania also directly bordering Russia. But Russia did not only come closer in geographical, but also in political terms and the topic of migration was on top of the agenda of the EU-Russia relations.73 The Union was keen to conclude a readmission agreement with Russia for a number of reasons, but mainly because Russia is a main country of origin and transit of migrants.74 The possibility of cooperation on the field of readmission was already contained in the PCA agreement.75 Also the, now long-forgotten, Common Strategy on Russia mentioned the conclusion of a readmission agreement with Russia.76 In September 2000 the Commission received the mandate from the Council to start the negotiations with Russia for the conclusion of a readmission agreement.77 In Russia, the sentiment towards the conclusion of a readmission agreement was the complete opposite. Given the limited or even non-existing illegal migration from the EU to Russia and the numbers of migrants either originating from Russia or passing through Russia, the obligation to readmit own nationals and third country nationals would mainly rest on Russia78, placing the financial burden of the agreement largely on Russia.79 Russia considered that the conclusion of a readmission agreement, inspired on a EU 70 European Council, ‘The Hague Programme — Strengthening freedom, security and justice in the European Union’ [2005] OJ C53/01, 7. 71 For example Algeria has already made clear that it considers visa facilitation and readmission to be linked. See European Commission, ‘Non-paper Expanding on the Proposals Contained in the Communication to the European Parliament and the Council on “Strengthening the ENP” — COM (2006) 726 final of 4 December 2006’ 3. 72 This in contrast with the neglect of the Kaliningrad issue as discussed below.
