The UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres said the migration meeting in Marrakech to adopt the Global Compact on Migration is an opportunity to make progress towards a well-managed migration. “I want to thank the Kingdom of Morocco for its generosity in hosting and helping to prepare this landmark conference,” he said. Migration “generates many different, legitimate and strongly held opinions. Not always the strongly held are legitimate; not always the legitimate are strongly held,” he explained. The Marrakech conference is set to be held in December this year.
