The pandemic accelerated some emerging drifts of change ongoing in the international system and, with it and in its wake, we moved from a VUCA to a BANI world. The COVID-19 has reshaped human mobility worldwide through the imposition of lockdowns, and also aggravated the vulnerability of some specific populations, such as the migrants. They became, in most regions of the world, even more vulnerable than they were before, especially those with an irregular status, refugees and asylum seekers. The purpose of this paper is to offer insights on the vulnerability of migrants in the context of COVID-19, focussing on the case of European countries.

Palabras clave : migrations; irregular migration; Europe; COVID-19 pandemic.
