Migration of people is a phenomenon which has significantly contributed to the development of the human civilization. On the other hand, military clashes and terrorism in recent times are the main reasons for migrating people not only from one state to another, but from one continent to another. The so-called "Arab spring" at the beginning of the second decade of the 21st century has caused hundreds of thousands of people from Africa and Asia to seek a better life in Europe and America ... At the same time, terrorism successfully uses people's migration to infiltrate deeply in the territory of its military and political opponents in Europe and America, creating preconditions for transferring its activities deeply to the territory of Europe and America. In this way, the symbiosis of the migration of people and terrorist organizations originating in the north of Africa and the Asian Middle East are becoming a major security challenge for Western civilization, and therefore Southeast Europe.
