    The Syrian refugee crisis began in 2011 when extremists tried to take over the Syrian government, sparking a civil war that has created over 5 million refugees in Europe. Most refugees are young Syrian males fleeing the conflict to find better opportunities and living conditions in countries like Germany. However, the EU has struggled to develop a unified refugee policy, and many countries are unwilling to accept large numbers of refugees. While refugees can boost economies by increasing the workforce and diversity, the crisis has also strained social services and bolstered support for far-right groups across Europe.

    Syrian Refugee Crisis

    Background

     19.5 million refugees across the globe

     5 Million in Europe

     Civil war started in March 2015

     10000 refugees drowned in the sea

     Most of the refugees come from Syria are male

     Mostly young and have no jobs

     ISIS are trying to create a hard Sunni Islamic state in Syria and Iraq

     20k died due to terrorist attacks and 50k injured

     400 thousand people have been killed in Syria throughout the war

     Life expectancy dropped 15 years in Syria from 70.5 to 55

    The war in Syria started in 2011 as the extremist tried to take over the government, this started
    a civil war and it ended up creating a refugee crisis as everyone from Syria was trying to run
    away and escape. As all people do they wanted to go to more money and have a better living life
    style so most want to go Germany and stay there, at the same time they want to bring their
    families into Germany. Since Germany at this moment are having a problem with it as no strait
    rules have been made to do with refugees in the EU, a lot of countries are not taking them and
    sending the back to their war-stricken countries. Not all these refugees come from Syria, but
    some of them come from places like Albania and Serbia, these are called economic refugees
    which are trying to gain money and move into west Europe. Most refugees are male and around
    the age of 20 as they are sent by their families to gain money and send them back in
    remittances. A lot of countries got involved in the war effort to even though you would not need
    as many people participating, the UN is, Germany, Russia, USA and Britain. Most refugees are
    held by turkey and it is increasing, the MEDCs are not taking a lot of the burden.

    Refugees are coming into Europe, there are benefits and drawbacks in certain situations. The
    give a stronger workforce and provide countries like Germany a higher birth rate which will
    increase the economy. The workforce will most likely be cheaper labour and will offer low skilled
    jobs, as more of them need to be taken, as the European population doesn’t want these jobs as
    they expect to get paid more. More refugees will give a bigger culture diversity and will increase
    the internationalism and make people accept other cultures more as they are more known. The
    country gets a brain gain when educated and creative people with new ideas come to a country.
    The experience a brain gain so the get more skilled workers in a certain profession. I also believe
    that it would not be acceptable if that country didn’t take any refugees like Bulgaria, as they
    came from a war-stricken country, and they need help, but a big problem is that it will increase
    the support of the far right which isn’t very good as it could damage Europe.
