Resumen
Bearing the promise of triple win for sending and receiving countries as well as migrants, circular migration has been taken up by the EU as a policy instrument to better manage migratory movements of third country nationals. Within the context of the EU-Moldova Mobility Partnership this approach has yielded only few results as both conceptual and policy ambiguity continues to exist about the meaning and rationale of circular migration. Moreover, regulated circular migration schemes have not yet been fully implemented while their shortcomings are gradually recognized by different stakeholders. The paper argues that the focus should therefore be on improving the legal framework and conditions to allow Moldovan migrants to go back and forth between their country of origin and destination. It also recommends to make more use of the Mobility Partnership as “regional approach” towards migration and to enable the conclusion of multilateral agreements between Moldova and different EU Member States.
