causes of migration.. There is no doubt that this is due to the low
economic situation in the countries exporting migrants, which are

immigration has taken serious dimensions after the emergence of
organized crime networks among illegal immigrants, and it can be
said that the main causes of immigration problems are mainly due
to the different levels of development between different countries of
the world and between different regions within one country, because

immigrants from poor and less developed countries to legal and
illegal immigration.

and organized crime that targeted Iraqi talent
The political and security instability was directly reflected in the
deterioration of the economic and social situation in Iraq, especially

manufacturing companies, and the absence of alternative plans for this segment, which contributed to an increase in the unemployment
rate in Iraq, forcing the emigration of large numbers of smart minds
to emigrate outside the country. To search for security and stability
