On June 14, commencing at 9:50 a.m. (local time; 4:50 p.m. JST), Mr. KISHIDA
Fumio, Prime Minister of Japan, attended the G7 Apulia Summit Session 4
“Migration,” for approximately 80 minutes. The overview is as follows.
1. Prime Minister Kishida stated that migration is an international issue in
which a variety of elements are intertwined in a complex manner and cannot
be solved by a single country alone. He further pointed out the need for
integrated measures involving the countries of origin, transit, and
destination.
2. Prime Minister Kishida explained that Japan has been carrying out efforts
focusing on “people,” attaching importance to ensuring human dignity and
human security for both migrants and host communities. He also explained
that Japan has supported the protection and empowerment of refugees,
internally displaced persons, returnees, and host community residents
through the Trust Fund for Human Security in countries including Moldova,
Somalia, and Lebanon.
3. On the three pillars proposed by Italy, namely, (1) addressing root causes
in the countries of origin, (2) tackling transnational organized crime
involved in migrant smuggling, and (3) establishing regular pathways for
migration, Prime Minister Kishida remarked on each as follows.
1. Prime Minister Kishida stated that comprehensive efforts are needed to
address root causes in the countries of origin, such as the improvement
of employment and economy, addressing climate change and environmental
issues, and ensuring security, and that Japan has been providing support
to Africa in these various areas. He further stated that Japan views
Africa as a partner growing together through the Tokyo International
Conference on African Development (TICAD), and will connect the outcomes
of this G7 Summit to the 9th TICAD (TICAD 9) next year.
2. To tackle transnational organized crime involved in migrant smuggling,
Prime Minister Kishida stated that it is necessary to take measures each
in the countries of origin, transit, and destination. He introduced
Japan’s cooperation based on the United Nations Convention against
Transnational Organized Crime, as well as support for strengthening
border control capacities in developing countries through contributions
to the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC). Prime Minister
Kishida further stated that Japan has provided support to African
countries such as Egypt, Kenya, and Côte d’Ivoire to strengthen their
border control authorities’ capacities related to combating smuggling,
trafficking in persons, and other crimes through the International
Organization for Migration (IOM).
3. Concerning the establishment of regular pathways for migration, Prime
Minister Kishida pointed out the importance of considering the
circumstances and systems of each country. He also underlined the
importance of addressing refugees, and stated that it is necessary to
make efforts to ease the pressures on host countries. Prime Minister
Kishida further explained that Japan is providing assistance to refugees
and displaced persons for their self-reliance through education and
vocational training, in coordination with international organizations and
others.
4. G7 Leaders shared the view on the importance of addressing these multiple
elements of migration.
