The integration was all the more difficult

The objective of the immigration act by the Minister of the Interior is to discourage illegal immigration. It is not intended to precede mass regularisations as Italy or Spain. Defended Optics is selected against sustained immigration immigration. This choice is not clear and requires political courage.

Any expulsion of an alien in national territory represents the culmination of a painful personal trajectory. Illegal immigrants take risks and their existence is far from being a part of pleasure. However, yield to instinctive feelings of compassion, the Republican duty is to show an implacable severity. Michel Rocard himself said that the France had not vocation to host any human misery.

The choice of Nicolas Sarkozy and the Government is, indeed, a vision for long-term needs of the France. With this project, the France does not, deny the contrary, its vocation of land of immigration. Peninsula of the continent, in chronic demographic deficit since the Napoleonic wars, world industrial power, the France can only to drink new blood. Immigration has been, is and will remain a vital for the survival of our countries need. The France akin therefore to other more "new" countries, but equally for men and women to populate its territories: the Canada, the Australia, but also the United States. All of these States have in common to carry out a selection of their immigrants. This selection is based on a simple idea: immigrants have vocation to settle permanently and to return quickly to their country of origin. Their characterization should enable them to quickly find a job, but also to adapt to the developments of the situation.

In the 1960s and until 1981, the France conducted massive regularisations in a context of strong economic growth. He was to meet immediate economic needs of the industrial sector in lack of low skilled labour. Often, the regularized immigrants were illiterate in their native language. The management of the future had not been thought. The integration was all the more difficult.

Immigration chosen, it is a migration policy that promotes integration against segregation. This is not the rejection of immigration, it is the refusal of communitarianism. Those who take part in illegal immigration and demonstrate against evictions promote well despite them, xenophobia and racism. Each knows that a clandestine immigrant to meet its needs either improperly job over someone in a regular situation (French, but often foreign), or is involved in illicit trafficking. The immigrant and feeds doubt on respect for the Republican by the Aliens Act and the reactions of rejection of immigrants.

Selected immigration, moreover, do not disadvantage emigration countries, contrary to received. The Asian community in France as in the United States plays, for example, a major role in foreign investment, lever of economic growth, in their country of origin. Selected immigration is not the despoliation of the "South" by the "North" on the contrary. It remains to be the France Republican to ensure the implementation of the orders of escort to the border is carried out in respect of law and the human person. The administrative judge offers significant and satisfactory guarantees in this regard, in the control of the action of the administration.
