Abstract

The organization of illegal migration is rightly considered to be one of the biggest, the most serious and the hardest to solve threats to the security of individuals, society, state and the international community. The topic of the study is the impact of the migrants' smuggling and human trafficking on the national security. Naturally, it cannot be a direct one. However, the negative impact of their cumulative effects contributes to the threat to the security of national foreign policy. Moreover, it is a serious threat to the state's internal security, the function of the state institutions and the general preservation of the vital social values.

The migrants' smuggling and human trafficking can directly endanger, the so-called, state foreign security contributing to the disintegration, hindering or impediment of a state's integration in international institutions and organizations, the international community's imposition of sanctions as well as the international community's condemnation because of the government's inability to oppose the organized crime. The potential consequences to the national security can be political and economic pressure but also a use of force in the international relations.

Moreover, the migrants' smuggling and human trafficking can indirectly endanger the internal state security in the fields of economy, demography, public and financial sectors. In other words, they can endanger its social stability, unity and co-existence of nations dnd national minorities. The most disturbing is their connection with other challenges and threats to the security, the most dangerous being the connection with terrorism.
