BRIEF CONSIDERATIONS ON THE LEGAL STATUS OF NATIONALS OF THE THIRD STATES IN THE EUROPEAN SPACE –THEORETICAL ASPECTS ON THE INNOVATIONS IN THE AREA,

Summary/Abstract: At the Summit in Thessaloniki in 2003, the European Council examined in detail the emerging regime of the clandestine immigration, the repatriation of the clandestine immigrants, cooperation with third countries, asylum and integration of the third-country nationals who are legally located in the European Union. Thus, the family reunification of a third-country national contributes to the creation of a socio-cultural stability, also facilitating their integration in the Member States. The right to family reunification is settled by the Directive No 2003/86/CE and manifested in fully accordance with the values and principles recognized by the Member States. Another issue officially declared at the Tampere Council was the illegal staying. The issue of returning illegally staying third-country nationals by the Directive 2008/115/EC, which settles an efficient policy of removing and returning, based on common standards in fully accordance with their fundamental rights and dignity. Following the necessity of consolidating the cooperation between Member States in their fight against illegal immigration was drafted the Directive 2009/52/EC providing for minimum standards on sanctions and measures against employers of illegally staying third-country nationals. Starting from the idea that the occupational and geographical mobility of third-country highly qualified workers should be recognized as a primary mechanism for improving labor market efficiency, preventing skill shortages and offsetting regional imbalances in the European Union was drafted the Directive 2009/50/EC on the conditions of entry and residence of third-country nationals for the purposes of highly qualified employment.
