One of the lessons learned from 2015 migration crisis shows a connection between the migrants entering Europe and terrorist attacks in Europe (Brussels, Paris, and Nice). There is a concern that terrorist, radical and criminal groups can easily recruit or hide their followers in between the immigrants or displaced persons to easily enter the European countries and potentially increase the threat of terrorist attacks.
According to the intelligence estimates , it is expected that Europe will face approximately 15 million migrants from North and Central Africa, as well as from Middle East and Asia in next three to five years. Currently, only in Turkey there are approximately 3 million of refugees and displaced persons, mostly from Syria and Iraq. Migrants will continue to use three Mediterranean Sea routes (Eastern, Central, and Western), as well as the Western Balkans route, because these are also the shortest routes towards the Western Europe.
European Union developed a comprehensive strategy and is implementing its migration policy, including internal and external actions, such as: the EU-Turkey statement, Partnership Framework, Valletta Action Plan, External Investment Plan and etc. The key lessons learned include the need for all EU actors to work in a coordinated manner with the EU and its Member States combining their financial and human resources and their
Grammar Result: Prior to The Great Depression, the United States was booming. Life was good for many. Companies were expanding nationwide, people were striking rich, and the stock markets were rising. Soon, the United States became the country where everyone wanted to be. Many immigrants were immigrating to the United States for opportunities.
Shawn Pogatchnik shows how important the fact that so many migrants are trying to flee to Germany and other EU countries by using statistics. Pogatchnik states that the EU countries “...has seen more than 332,000 migrants enter so far this year.” He also says that Germany “...is expecting to take in 800,000 migrants in this year.” When people read the article, they realize that what is going on must be bad enough for hundreds of thousands of people to want to flee their own country to enter another European country.
The Lakeland art Museum is the focal point of my report, where I enjoyed many paintings, photographs, and sculptures of many artists both renowned and local. Examples of such would be Pablo Picasso, Francisco De Goya, Hung Liu, and many more. Although the first to catch my eye was that of Liu’s work Working Woman: Millstone 1999, an etching with soft colors, varnish, as well as paint. It depicts two work-worn older Chinese woman operating a millstone the image was then layered over with red kanji fruit and a bird. Furthermore while absorbing the impact of the piece I came to realize that one woman was much older than the other and overseeing the younger ones work, they were wearing similar clothes and seemed to be in an outdoor setting. Concluding that it maybe possible The image depicted a mother and daughter as well as their family practice of milling grain. Due to it obviously not being factory setting meaning the mill must be close to a home, similarities between the women could possibly mean relation, and practice of stone milling could have been passed down thorough their generations.
The number of people seeking a better life in Europe has not dropped, and many countries, including Germany and France, have felt that it was necessary to have a similar security policy that can easily address the migration. The thought has been rejected by EU leaders. Turkey has been working hard to host 1.6 million migrants due to displaced Syrians within its borders. Taking in refugees is not inexpensive. The total cost to Turkey is estimated to be $4.5 billion and the numbers are currently rising. Turkey has introduced new regulations in order for Syrians to have a stronger legal status in the country, and healthcare and education is
This article focuses on the migration policy in Europe and the author, Nicole Gelinas, discusses why she disagrees with the current system in place. The article beings by reviewing the number of migrants that have died while migrating out of hostile areas into safe havens. While there have been some deaths during the migration process, German Chancellor Angela Merkel has made it easier for people seeking asylum in Germany. Gelinas argues why Germany’s migration process has been detrimental to the system, however, this is not the case at all. Since Chancellor Merkel has changed the requirements, it has opened the doors for more people to seek safety from hostile areas that they live in.
The Immigration crisis in Europe captured the world attention. Last year there was almost one million refugee flow to Europe. The increase of political crises in the whole world has made from immigration is the only way to survive from death or an unpredictable future. Therefore the emigrants from all over the world seek to asylum in European counters because they assume it's well the gate of their dreams to have a stable future for them and for their children. Consequently, with increasing of the political crisis in the world has made from immigration is the only solution to escape from political, demographic, religious conflicts unsolved problems as in Iraq and Afghanistan. The citizens in Arab communities were the victims
Europe’s strong response to terror attacks in the USA should not be underestimated, as parts of the 9/11 attacks were planned in Europe and there were over 20 individuals from Europe who were imprisoned in Guantanamo Bay on behalf on US. The attacks are considered as a security breach that was instantly classified as a notable threat that concerned the United States and the Western world, giving rise to extensive amount of political moves, policy-making, exceptional legislation, and military action abroad. Attacks of 9/11 had a far-reaching impact on the way the EU would shape its migration policies; that the nexus between migration and asylum policy on the one hand and security concerns on the other hand became more prominent. It is contended,
Women, men, and children from West Africa are migrating to Europe because of the instability and violence that is taking place in Syria, Iraq, and Eritrea. According to the International Organization for Migration (IOM), “About 710,000 people” are crossing the european border. The vast migration is causing an increase on human trafficking, since traffickers and smugglers are taking advantage of the refugees. The IOM is reaching out to European countries “to spend more resources against sex trafficking,” in order to relocate and reduce the amount of refugees that are being victimize. A plan to resettle 10,000 Syrian refugees in the United States has being criticize because people are concern about the national security of the nation. The GOP presidential candidates are against the resettlement program. According to them the Syrian refugees post a threat to the national security of the United States. While, the Democratic presidential candidates want to increase the number of refugees that are going to be admitted. The refugees crisis has become the worst humanitarian Crisis in the world today. As citizens we have to sympathize with them and provide a
Integration of Arab immigrants is one of the most contentious issues in Europe and is becoming a huge area of concern for many European countries. More than one million asylum-seekers arrived to Europe through the Mediterranean Sea in 2015. The United Nations High Commissioner in Refugees (UNHCR) evaluated that approximately 84% of these migrants are from countries that qualify them as refugees (because of war or other circumstances). This sudden huge influx of immigrants poses a huge challenge for the European countries and how they will be integrated in European society will define the social, economical, and political future of Europe.
The two largest modern bank runs in American history were the Savings & Loans Crisis of the 1980’s and the Financial Crisis in 2008-2009. Both crises left permanent scars on our financial system and provide important lessons moving forward. In this paper, I will provide a comparative analysis of the various causes, economic effect and regulatory responses, in an attempt to perhaps display a pattern for these crises that we can lean on to prevent future ones. Ultimately, the analysis yielded that at the core both crises were caused by regulatory negligence, attempting to cheat the system and government policy mistakes regarding financial policy, all contributed to the rise of these crises. Both had detrimental economic effects, and both regulatory
they face a lot of challenges, once and if they are lucky enough to get into europe, they face problems and dangers with the authorities of Europe, who treat them really badly.They travel to other European countries, with different people and a different language. The other problem that a lot of Migrants face is the problem of finding a new home and a occupation to bring income. These Migrants also face threats from the people of Europe of racial comments and threats. The European also face a lot of problems with illegal Migrants, because they have to provide food, water and shelter for the Migrants that are kept in Asylums. And also the diseases and sicknesses that Migrants bring have to be tested by The authorities. The authorities have to ensure that no one gets hurt or injured, when the Migrants arrive or when they are on boats or in vehicles. The European forces are also losing control over their borders which leads them to use physical ways to stop the Illegal migrants from entering European soil which injures or kills Migrants. Over Thousand of Migrants try to enter European soil, and some of these migrants lose their lives. What the European Governments need to do is work together to get these Migrants shelter and food. We need to work together and help these African countries and Middle-Eastern countries to
Imagine having to live in a constant war, where it's not safe to go outside for months at a time. Imagine having your friends and relatives killed by the endless conflicts. Imagine having to give everything up for a chance at a possible new life (Reeves). Every day, migrants attempt to achieve a new life for these very reasons. It's not an easy journey, approximately 560 reach the shores of Greece and Italy everyday, however 56 migrants drown trying to cross the Mediterranean Sea daily. 1,680 a month, 20,440 a year (Fleming). As soon as they begin their journey, these refugees are plagued with problems, from the dangerous of the Mediterranean to the culture shock when they reach their destination (Al Abdullah). The migrant crisis has become
The situation present migrant situation in Europe is concerning to say the least, thousands, if not to say millions of immigrants cross European frontiers illegally every day, causing not only legal problems for themselves, but also injuries and death.
The European migrant crisis has drawn world wide attention as hundreds of thousands of refuges have abruptly left their home countries and risked their lives not knowing what lies in front of them. However the crisis is also affecting several countries across Europe who is scrambling to determine how to properly care for migrants. I feel deeply about the crisis in the sense thousands have died due to the lack of planning and understanding of the concept. It is my belief that with necessary knowledge and formal leadership, countless lives could be saved.
Since 2011, Syria has been engaged in a Civil War with protestors against the government and members of the extremist group ISIS, and approximately 7.6 million people have been displaced from their homes (usnews.com 2015). As the conflict destroys more homes and livelihoods each year, an increasing number of civilians have been forced to leave Syria and try to find safety elsewhere. Already a contentious issue, the Syrian refugee crisis has awakened tensions, both economic and social as debate erupts over what to do with the refugees.In response to the crisis, while some countries like Germany have pledged to help the refugees, (New Statesman 2015 1) only 2,340 have been admitted. Clearly, more needs to be done in order to help the refugees. Although there are economic and population concerns to be considered, the humanitarian conflict that faces the refugees and solutions already available are reason enough for Europe to increase the numbers of Syrian refugees allowed in.
