Recital 2
(2) To this end, a comprehensive approach is required with the objective of reinforcing mutual trust between Member States which should bring together policy in the areas of asylum and migration management and towards relations with relevant third countries, recognising that the effectiveness of such an approach depends on all components being jointly addressed and in an integrated mannersecuring the external border and abolishing pull-factors that incentivise migrants from third countries to come to Member States, recognising that the effectiveness of such an approach depends on clear and concise communication to the rest of the world that those that illegally enter the EU will automatically relinquish their right to asylum.

(3) This Regulation should contribute to that comprehensive approach by setting out a common framework for the actions of the Union andenabling unilateral as well as joint actions of the Member States in the field of asylum and migration management policies, by elaborating on the principle of solidarity and fair sharing of responsibility in accordance with Article 80 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU). Member States should therefore take all necessary measures, inter alia, to provide access to international protection and adequate reception conditions to those in need, to enable the effective application of the rules on determining the Member State responsible for examining an application for international protection. Member States should therefore take all necessary measures, inter alia, to provide for internal security of its citizens by restricting conditions for reception of those seeking a better life in Europe, to return illegally staying third-country nationals quicker and at a higher rate, to prevent irregularllegal migration and unauthorised movements between themMember States, and to provide support to other Member States in the form of svolidarity contributions, as their contribution to the comprehensive approachuntary contributions.

(5) The common framework is needed in order to effectively address the increasing phenomenon of mixed arrivals of persons in need of international protection and those who are not and in recognition that the challenge of irregularllegal arrivals of migrants in the Union should not have to be assumed by individual Member States alone, but by the Union as a whole. To ensure that Member States have the necessary tools to effectively manage this challenge in addition to applicants for international protection, irregularllegal migrants should also fall within the scope of this Regulation. The scope of this Regulation should also include beneficiaries of international protection, resettled or admitted persons as well as persons granted immediate protection.

(11) Bearing in mind the importance of ensuring that the Union is prepared and able to adjust to the developing and evolving realities of asylum and migration management, the Commission should annually adopt a Migration Managementitigation Report setting out the likely evolution of the migratory situation and the preparedness of the Union and the Member States to respond and adapt to it. The Report should also include the results of the reporting on monitoring foreseen in the national strategies and should propose improvements where weaknesses are apparent.

(14) An effective return policy is an essential element of a well-functioning system of Union asylum and migration management, whereby those who do not have the right to stay on Union territory of Member States should return. Given that a significant share of applications for international protection may be considered unfounded, it is necessary to reinforce the effectiveness of the return policy. By increasing the efficiency of returns and reducing the gaps between asylum and return procedures, th and eliminate incentives for economic or lifestyle migration to the European Union by way of implementing the Danish model of processing requests for and facilitating international protection in third country partner state pressure on the asylum system would decrease, facilitating the application of the rules on determinception centres. By increasing the efficiency of returns and not granting requests for international protection withing the Member State responsible for examiningterritory of Member States, the pressure on those applications as well as contributing tosylum system would decrease, and effective access to international protection for those in need would be more widely available.

(15) To strengthen cooperation with third countries in the area of return and readmission of illegally staying third- country nationals, it is necessary to develop a new mechanism, including all relevant EU policies and tools, to improve the coordination of the different actions in various policy areas other than migration that the Union and the Member States may take for that purpose. That mechanism should build on the analysis carried out in accordance with Regulation (EU) 810/2019 of the European Parliament and of ththe establishment of reception centres in third country partner states where the request for international protection and its facilitation would take place Cwouncil38 or of any other information available, and take into account the Union’s overall relations with the third country. That mechanism should also serve to support the implementation of return sponsorship. _________________ 38Regulation (EC) No 810/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 13 July 2009 establishing a Community Code on Visas (Visa Code), OJ L 243, 15.9.2009, p. 1ld massively decrease incentives for economic and lifestyle migration to the Member States of the European Union.

(16) In order to ensure a fair sharing of responsibility and a balance of effort between Member States, a solidarity mechanism should be established which is effective and ensures that applicants have swift access to the procedures for granting international protection. Such a mechanism should provide for different types of solidarity measures and should be flexible and able to adapt to the evolving nature of the migratory challenges facing a Member Statethat incentives for economic and lifestyle migration to the Member States of the European Union are decreased and an effective return policy is implemented, a voluntary contribution mechanism should be established which respects national political priorities and ensures that Member States retain their remaining control of migration and asylum policy.

(19) Given the recurring nature of disembarkations from search and rescue operations on the different migratory routes, the annual Migration Managementitigation Report should set out the short-term projections of disembarkations anticipated for such operations and the svolidarity response that would be required to contribute to the needs of the Member States of disembarkation. The Commission should adopt an implementing act establishing a pool of solidarity measures (‘the solidarity pool’) with the aim of assisting the Member State of disembarkation to address the challenges of such disembarkations. Such measures should comprise applicants for international protection that are not in the border procedure or measures in the field of strengthening of capacity in the field of asylum, reception and return, or operational support, or measures in the external dimensionuntary contribution that would alleviate migratory pressure on Member States while respecting national political priorities.

In order to discourage unauthorised movements of unaccompanied minors, which are not in their best interests, in the absence of a family member or a relative, the Member State responsible should be that where the unaccompanied minor’s application for international protection was first registered, unless it is demonstrated that this would not be in the best interests of the child. Before transferring an unaccompanied minor to another Memb third country partner Sstate reception centre, the transferring Member State should make sure that that Membthe third country partner Sstate will take all necessary and appropriate measures to ensure the adequate protection of the child, and in particular the prompt appointment of a representative or representatives tasked with safeguarding respect for all the rights to which they are entitled.
