Refugee Immigration Policy Analysis

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.

Empathy and Angst in a German City Transformed by Refugees is an article by Katrin Bennhold that describes the conflicting perception held by German nationals towards the influx of Syrian asylum seekers. The article captures the reaction and perception of the German uptake of the Syrian refugees by the German nationals. The author suffices as the untold voice of the German citizens that are directly affected by the Syrian refugee crisis. The author, Katrin Bennhold, seems to be keen on highlighting the shunned opinions of the citizens in Germany that have found themselves in a crisis that is not of their making. Her intended audience seems to be the policy makers as well as the world citizenry willing to offer refuge to the Syrian

At the moment, Syrian refugees are being subjected to the most precautionary methods when entering the country (Text 3). The Syrians are trying to escape the many violations they are faced with. In Syria, there are many bombings that are killing innocent people. Using precautionary methods based on race shows that America is well on their way to banning the refugees from entering the US. While Americans might think that using precautionary action is the best, they are supporting an unethical act. However, it is worse because they can do something to stop it, yet they refuse. Syrians are running from powerful individuals who have taken their rights, seeking asylum in America but they are almost treated the same because they are not trusted. If America were to ban immigrants from entering the US then they might be repeating history. During the 1940s, Hitler took it upon himself to purify Germany of Jews (Text 2). The action of Hitler led to a world War because of the unethical actions he took to get what he wanted. The fear of many Americans are holding them back from helping innocent children and women. If Americans can look past the fear of having their country destroyed by the refugees then they would be helping alot of people. Americans can provide a safe haven for the refugees but they are too afraid to allow

Introduction: United states has been the country of immigration from long time. A huge cultural difference shows that U.S has flexible and acceptable policy for immigrants and refugees. But some citizen claims that they are facing a lot of problems and losing their certain opportunity due to immigrants and refugees. In support of immigrants, we will examine the opposition claims, and then we will turn our attention to the benefit and importance of accepting refugees and immigrants to our country.

Especially given the recent terrorist attacks in Paris, where 130 citizens were killed and 368 were injured. In addition, the chaos Germany and other areas which have already been flooded by refugees are in, makes the issue of migration that much more of a serious issue. “We're being told to open the floodgates for waves of people who are completely intolerant of western values and liberal

The current open door policy in Germany is what incentivizes refugees to immigrate there. In my opinion, Merkel has done a great job in dealing with this immigration situation, these refugees deserve to have better lives and they can do so by moving to a stable country such as Germany, where the wages are higher and the welfare system is great. Many are against Merkel’s view on this situation and allowing refugees to settle in Germany. For one thing, they’re a huge asset to the labor force and bring a diverse demographic. Although there are many concerns about terrorism, many of these refugees are innocent people trying to evade the turmoil in their countries. I agree with Merkel’s current stance because it helps the German economy, and also

U.S. immigration laws and policies have failed to meet international human rights norms due to the treatment of migrants and refugees. The government continues to limit the right of immigrants and unfairly discriminates them. Millions of immigrants have been deported While U.S. immigration policies have seen some improvements under President Obama. The U.S. does continue to provide some meaningful protection to refugees and asylum seekers.

In this article Michael Shear explains how Washington face amount of pressure to respond to the migrant crises across Europeans by resettling more Syrians in the United State. The Germany leader appealed to other European countries to take a fair share of migrants. He also mentioned the limits USA put on migrants that come to United State. The United States Committee for refugee has urged president Obama to open American borders to 100,000 Syrians in the next year. He emphasized rescuing people who need the most. Some of the leaders of Europe disagree accepting migrants annually. Germany president said he would accept 500,000 migrants annually while Sweden leader couldn’t agree more. The Danish government advertised if they resettle migrants,

Statistics show that about 69,975 people were refugees and had entered the United States in the year of 2014. Most of them were shown from the following countries: Iraq, Burma, Somalia, and Bhutan (Mossaad 1). Over the years, the United States and other countries have tried many ways to block out the immigrants from coming into the countries but none of the laws or restrictions have stop the immigrants from coming in completely. At this time, President Obama said, “the amount of people crossing the border illegally is at its lowest since the 1970’s”. That must mean America is doing something right. The current US Immigration policies should not be reformed because the United States government is putting

Refugees from the Middle East desperately try to survive the wars occurring in their country. Their only options are to stay there, to locate to a refugee camp where the living conditions are horrific, or to resettle in another safe country. Many of the refugees long for the latter. Some countries accept them, and some do not. America is one of the countries that is in between; it accepts a limited amount of refugees because of the immigration laws that are applied. It needs to be

In recent years the immigration subject has been more present than ever. The immigration subject has been treated as a minor problem, but now it seems to be getting more popular. Before no one would listen to immigrants because according to the laws of the United States illegal people were criminals. Currently we are still criminals according to the laws, but we have proved the opposite. Who would think about immigrants becoming more successful and stronger in this country than actual citizens. But not everything has been easy for immigrants for the most part it have been hard as hell. This research paper will inform about the different topics of immigration by using scholarly journals articles to explain the reasons in favor of the reform,

One step towards improving the U.S.’s refugee policy is giving more aid to the countries who take in the most. While the United States is “the largest donor to the relief agencies” helping refugees settle in Lebanon, Turkey, and Jordan,

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 United States, Denmark, and Austria’s unwillingness to take refugees are evidence that the United States is fearful of people from this region, and that Denmark and Austria’s politicians feel that they do not have the resources to take in a lot of refugees. Denmark’s politicians are wanting to control the flow of refugees seeking asylum in their countries, and Steve Hendrix notes that “Austria has
