Abstract


The author of the article deals with the reasons for the existence of obstacles preventing the successful integration of migrants in the democratic societies of the EU member states. The article examines the various aspects of migration in relation to their benefits for the society mainly in economic, but also social terms. The basis for the study is the statistical data published by international organizations actively involved in the migration crisis in Europe, such as UNHCR, FRONTEX, IOM, etc. The author evaluates the measures taken by political leaders of the European Union and draws conclusions and assessments based on them. His aim is to outline the possible solutions in order to spend the expenditures of the EU in the most proper way.
