Abstract. This article analyzes, from a sociological perspective, the implications in terms of protection of the New Pact on Migration and Asylum in the European Unión (EU). Working from a qualitative methodology, this article aims to expose a strategy that can be understood as an externalisation of the responsibility to protect developed by the EU under the argument of preventing the saturation of the European asylum system. As main results, I point out, firstly, the structuring of strategies aimed at stopping the arrival of population, and secondly, an analysis of access control to the EU, based on context and region of origin following the model used in the EU-Turkey Declaration of 2016. I raise as a discussion the urgency of greater international guarantees based on the complaints developed by non-governmental organizations, to finally conclude by highlighting the practices of withdrawal of protection systems in the face of the increase in forced transnational human mobility.
