Negative Effects Of Refugees In Europe

Refugees are people who crossed borders, fleeing due to problems related to race religion and nationality. While fleeing, refugees unknowingly carry many diseases due to lack of mental help and attention. When coming to a new country, refugees have no self-esteem to get jobs due to the language barrier. Refugees who flee their country and sacrifice everything are confident and strong willed with all the obstacles that come through their journey to start a new life. The long-term effects that a refugee experiences due to forced migration is Post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety, and depression. Forced migration has a negative mental and physical affect on refugees.

In the final draft I will expand on each of the issues, by looking into more specific examples of both what different European countries are doing policy wise, as well as what the sentiment is among the refugees in the different areas of Europe. To fully be able to understand the conditions the refugees are facing I will be using other scholars ethnography work; One of those works being Katerina Rozakou’s piece regarding the management of refugees in Greece. As a result of that knowledge I will be able to come to an accurate conclusion as to what course of action should be taken in Europe as a whole, to deal with this ongoing

Nicole Gelinas voices her opinion on how Europe should focus their immigration policies towards those who are in war zones and not those who leave on their own accord. I disagree. This policy should be focused on those who are making this dangerous trek and risking their lives to do so. Many of these people aren’t near a war zone but still face the same dangers as if they were. These refugees make this dangerous trek either by choice or force. Forced refugees leave because of the harsh laws, like Sharia, in their home countries that bind them to strict codes that are cruel.

The European migrant crisis began in 2015 when there was an influx of refugees coming into the European Union through southern European countries and by way of the Mediterranean Sea. An extremely large portion of these refugees came from Syria and Iraq. One of the leading causes of the mass migration was war and unrest and the consequent rise of insurgency groups such as ISIS within these people’s home countries. As their homes and cities have become unfit to live in any longer, people have been driven to seek asylum in European countries. Greece and other southern European countries like

Thousands and thousands of migrants have begun to flood into the European countries. With immigration numbers higher than ever, these countries have begun to search for solutions. Some countries have considered closing their borders , many are beginning to show violence to keep people out. As always, there is a much better solution other than using violence. The Europe Migration Policy needs to be adjusted to current needs and these countries need to work together to create better opportunities for the immigrants and refugees seeking safety.

The refugee crisis is a hotly debated and controversial topic all over the globe relevant to today. The rising number of refugees arriving in the European Union has significantly increased throughout the past few years. The controversy comes from not the refugees themselves, but from where they are emigrating from. Coming from extremely hostile and dangerous countries operated by the Islamic State militants, there is a sense of hysteria from the opposing side saying that there are risks that need to be factored in when accepting such a large amount of people from places where there are high concentrations of terrorism into their home countries. On the other side of the argument, the advocates for refugees are proclaiming that as humans we have moral obligations to give the quintessential helping hand to humans whenever one is in need, regardless of their situation or circumstances. Through social activism these proponents are seeking to

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

Many refugees are seeking a safe haven in Western Europe, and even in neighbouring countries. Places such as: Turkey, Jordon, Lebanon and Iraq are only a few to name. This may be the worst refugee crisis since World War II with about 85% of resettlement spots are pledged by Germany. It has become a matter of neglect towards human beings rather than a fight for freedom rights. People prefer security over those freedom rights and rebels are continuing at the risk of

Refugee issue is a global issue mainly due to wars, conflicts or environmental, political, religious and racial reasons (Gibney & Gil, 2010). In recent years, the turmoil triggered by the "Arab Spring" in many countries in West Asia and North Africa causing numerous refugees, so it has once again attracted the attention of people（Grossman, 2017）. People forced to relocate their homes and even renounce their nationality by war or natural disasters are defined as refugee（UNHCR，2017）.The influx of refugees brings cheap labor forces reducing the cost of productions ,and causes the promotion of economic development. In addition, the increasing population leads to an increase in demand which can increase the income of the host countries and the state tax. It can be argued that refugees are unable to benefit the host nations because refugees increase unemployment rate and occupy resources in education. Although it may be true that there are some negative effects caused by refugees, refugees can benefit the host nation in terms of economy and social advancement.

Europe is in a state of turmoil. Immigrants have arrived in Europe by the millions, which has caused this nation to think about their old immigration policies. After World War II, Europe decided to have an open door policy for incoming immigrants from Africa and the Middle East. As time progressed and wars started in the Middle East and Africa, Europe started to take in refugees. One of the qualifications to live as a refugee in an Europe nation is one must apply for asylum. This application process just shows that the people that are escaping from their country, really do need to escape because they are being prosecuted in their own country. However, many people fake the information and are being let into countries that they have the ability

With all the conflict in the Middle East that is currently making the front page, we tend to forget about the people who used to live there and have been forced to flee the area. Thousands upon thousands of migrants are fleeing every day from conflicts in the Middle East and Africa to Europe in search of a better life.  Many of them, trying to settle as far north as possible, live in temporary migrant camps until they can travel further north to claim asylum in their prefered country.

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.

The European refugee crisis began in 2015, when a rising number of refugees and migrants made the journey to the European Union (EU) to seek asylum. Refugees are people who have been forced to leave their country in order to escape war, persecution, or natural disaster. According to the data that was shown in Business Standard and also confirmed by BBC News, the top ten nations which account for 90% of the sea arrivals in 2015 were: Syria (49%), Afghanistan (21%), Iraq (8%), Eritrea (4%), Pakistan, Nigeria and Somalia (2 %), Sudan, Gambia and Mali (1%). Also the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees confirms that the top three nationalities of refugees are Syrian, Afghan and Iraqi. Of the refugees and migrants arriving in Europe by sea in 2015, 58% were men, 17% women and 25% children. (Wright, 2015). According to Eurostat, EU member states received over 1.2 million first time asylum applications in 2015, 4 countries (Germany, Hungary, Sweden, and Austria) received around two-thirds, while Latvia received a very small part of them.

In 2015, there were sad news related to Arabic countries ; civil war, IS terror in Paris, and refugee crisis in European countries like Greece, France, and Italy. Especially Italy is well-known as a shelter for stateless refugees. Conversely, Syria is a well-known region where more than four million people are displaced from. One million nine hundred thirty- eight thousand nine hundred ninety-nine (1938999) refugees are registered in Turkey, but Turkey is just a temporary passage to reach to European countries through land road. Italy is accepting refugees even it is under serious economic recession. So it is a hot issue whether Italy should keep accepting refugees or stop it by law. In this situation, although EU forces its members to accept migrants, it seems obvious that Italy should stop accommodating them inside their country. Some people state that we should ban this random influx in Italy, however there are other people who assert to actively embrace people from Arabic countries for the reason of recruiting expertise from other areas so that Italy can aim at elevating the rate of national development. However, no more evacuation must be permitted in Italy unless they want to collapse in decades, and here are the three reasons : decrease of benefits for citizens, cultural conflicts, and criminal problems.

Europe today struggles with immigration and making decisions on immigration policies and acceptance. Each country has different opinions on immigration because of varying beliefs and cultures. In the Netherlands, people flee from different parts of the world to gain refuge and safety from war, famine, scarcity, and fear. These people are making the decision to leave their home, and sometimes their families, because they want to be safe and find a better life for themselves. Unfortunately, some of these European countries don’t believe they deserve to be a part of their society. The people are resisting immigrants because they believe that there won’t be enough jobs, enough space, and the immigrants won’t conform to the new country’s culture. However, there are some countries who take in immigrants and provide them with a safe place to live. Most of these people fleeing their country are the same age as you and I, seeking a future in a place away from their family, friends, and home. To deny these people a safe space almost ensures their death either in their homeland or during their struggle to get away.
