Answer:

A Sending country.

Explanation:

When emigration occurs, the origin country is called the sending country (country X in the example) while the target country is the receiving country (Country Y).

Though war is an important reason for emigrants, other factors, such as critical economic crisis, high levels of insecurity or lack of employment are also among the most common factors for why people emigrate.
