Moreover, given their lack of visibility, their existence and their concrete consequences can easily be contradicted at political level. Finally, given that bilateral cooperation on return involves many unknowns about its practical and regular implementation, the potential (explicit or implicit) disruption of a flexible agreement by a non-European country is less burdensome from a political point of view for a European State.
