The most common approach to dealing with migration flows from the Maghreb to the European Union (UN) has been strict border checks. This approach, as shown by this study, does not take into account the developmental needs of the sending countries. Maghreb politicians may, as a result, find it less attractive to co-operate with their EU partners as long as they see migration as a substitute for economic development efforts. Such a view is particularly based on the positive effects migration is expected to have on remittances and real wages in the migrants' countries of origin
