The European Union is often credited with an increase in immigration to and within Europe since its formation in 1993.
The European Union, established by the Maastricht Treaty, is a political and economic union of European countries that promotes the free movement of goods, services, capital, and people among its member states. This has facilitated easier travel, work, and residence within the European Union, leading to increased immigration flows and mobility across European countries. The European Union's policies and agreements have played a significant role in shaping immigration patterns and facilitating the movement of individuals within the region.
