Summary/Abstract: Security is a priority value in the state's migration policy and primarily means the protection of state borders. While each state makes independent decisions on its own securityand possible cooperation in this area, any decisions on treating people must be made in accordance with international obligations. According to the principles of international law, it is the competence of the state to decide who and under what conditions is allowed to enter and stay in its territory, provided that the decisions made are not arbitrary and comply with international obligations. In other words, the status of the international obligations of the state determines the scope of the state's own competence. This correlation is particularly evident at the EU level. However, these principles are put to the test in crisis situations.The aim of the paper is to demonstrate the necessity of international cooperation in matters of immigration and immigrants for broadly understood national security in defence of democratic values, which is especially important in solving crisis situations.
