Summary/Abstract: This policy paper examines the Global Compacts on Migration and Refugees, two non-binding instruments adopted by the UN in 2018 to address the challenges of migration and refugee protection. The paper explains the origins, contents and main criticisms of the compacts, and argues that they do not threaten state sovereignty or security, but rather aim to enhance international cooperation and shared responsibility. The paper recommends that the Czech Republic, which voted against the migration compact, should reconsider its position and support both instruments as a small state that benefits from the free movement of persons and the mechanisms of international solidarity.
