DISINFORMATION CASE DETAILS

DISINFO: UN Global Compact for Migration is classified and will result in thousands of migrants coming to Georgia

SUMMARY

UN Global Compact for Migration is a classified document. // It will cause a new wave of Asian and African settlement in Georgia, which can be compared to the invasions of Mongols, Turks and Persians.

RESPONSE

The UN Global Compact for Migration is a public document, available on the UN webpage. // The aim of the UN Global Compact is to better manage migration at local, national, regional and global levels, in a cooperative manner. It is non-legally binding; any measures taken to tackle migration are within the remit of the signatory countries. Therefore, the document does not force Georgia or any other country to let in any migrants and as such, cannot result in new waves of migrants. A recurring pro-Kremlin narrative on migration and UN Global Compact for Migration.
