The promotion of migration is often seen as "leftist", the aid as "humanistic" and the consequences as "cosmopolitan".
All these terms are positively occupied and disguise whose interests are served here.
It is about supplying the local labor market with cheap workers.
In migration from low-wage countries to high-wage countries, employers and investors profit on a large scale.
Thus labor migration from low-wage countries to high-wage countries deserves criticism.
On 11 December, the "Global Compact for safe, orderly and regular Migration" will be signed in Marrakech (Morocco). In doing so, the signatories commit themselves to promoting international migration. This is not about escape or asylum, this is a separate agreement, but to labor migration. Illegal migration is never mentioned in this UN migration agreement and it is not differentiated between them.
Migration is good for business, but companies cautiously approach the issue to avoid criticism. That's why, in addition to the UN migration agreement, there is also the paper "Making Migration work for all". In wich criticism is already expected.
However, according to the UN migration agreement, this is a fallacy. Labor migration is basically good for everyone and doubts are illegitimate. And to achieve this, the states commit themselves to intervene in the media reporting.
Taking criticism seriously means that those who suffer from labor migration are mistaken. So sooner or later one believes that labor migration is good or that one is xenophobic or even racist. In the paper "`Making Migration work for all"' this requirement sounds like this:
To be against racism is all well and good. However, if this means that labor migration should always and indefinitely be welcomed and all criticisms of labor migration are xenophobic or even racist, then there is no longer any freedom of expression or free reporting.
The UN migration agreement contradicts itself here. On the one hand, the freedom of expression or free reporting should be protected on the other hand, should be intervened in the reporting, if necessary. And there is only one truth, and that is, labor migration is good.

"We must also show respect for communities that fear they are 'losing out' because of migration. While there is powerful evidence that migrants are of significant benefit to both their host countries and their countries of origin, we cannot be blind to citizens’ perceptions and concerns. Communities blighted by inequality and economic deprivation frequently blame migration for their troubles. While it is necessary to explain why such views are mistaken, it is essential to address the underlying vulnerabilities and fears of all citizens so that we can make migration work for all. "

"... we recognize that it is a source of prosperity, innovation and sustainable development in our globalized world, ... We also must provide all our citizens with access to objective, evidence-based, clear information about the benefits and challenges of migration, with a view to dispelling misleading narratives that generate negative perceptions of migrants. "

Taking criticism seriously means that those who suffer from labor migration are mistaken. So sooner or later one believes that labor migration is good or that one is xenophobic or even racist. In the paper "`Making Migration work for all"' this requirement sounds like this:
"We must sadly acknowledge that xenophobic political narratives about migration are all too widespread today. We must not allow these to distort our agenda. I applaud the New York Declaration adopted by the Member States, and in particular for addressing the issue in positive terms. Progress towards resolving real challenges associated with migration means, in part, dispelling alarmist misrepresentations of its effects. Political leaders must take responsibility for reframing national discourses on the issue, as well as for policy reforms. "
[2,S.4]
To be against racism is all well and good. However, if this means that labor migration should always and indefinitely be welcomed and all criticisms of labor migration are xenophobic or even racist, then there is no longer any freedom of expression or free reporting.
"Promote independent, objective and quality reporting of media outlets, including internetbased information, including by sensitizing and educating media professionals on migration-related issues and terminology, investing in ethical reporting standards and advertising, and stopping allocation of public funding or material support to media outlets that systematically promote intolerance, xenophobia, racism and other forms of discrimination towards migrants, in full respect for the freedom of the media "
