I don’t know where the data comes from but Germany took 1.4 million refugees since 2015 instead of 3000
Norways population consist of 14% immigrants in 2012, so these numbers are misleading.
And they are now paying the price
Well, refugees is a vague statistic too, you have to remember they can use family reunion papers to get more of their family members into the country, many people are even monetary migrants.
"1990 to 2015, 738 000 people immigrated to Norway from countries outside the Nordic region" That's a lot when we are only 5.2 million population today.
Very few places in the world with all out war zones, it's like Syria/middle east and a few places in Africa. It's less than 10 per 100 000 people die each year from direct conflict.
It's never been this peaceful in the history of mankind. We should of course help, with food and resources. But to take in immigrants and integration, cost too much.
DUDE! CAN YOU SEE, DO YOU HAVE EYES GO AND LOOK AT AND LISTEN AGAIN
@@sebastiaankruis3006 if you Are born in Germany and have German citizenship you Are as far as I know not an immigrant
Q: How to solve the refugee crisis?
A: Stop the U.S. from invading the homeland of the refugees.
TokenBlackman7 Not true in the slightest can’t possibly blame the USA or the U.K. for the millions of African migrants disguised as refugees or the Syrian refugees
@ScarletDespair stop buying resources from their dictators
Or stop them from intervening by censoring western news organizations that demonize leaders whose death cause a civil war.
I will fix it for you, stop Islam endless dictatorial terror anti-secular sharia impact and then no one will invade you and nobody will have problems in their own countries (99% Middle Easten-African Muslim countries)
How about stopping the war and help people build their lives?
Petko Kirilov sounds great but the war ending would only stop refugees not the refugees disguised as migrants
Petko, I agree with you, but ending wars is very complex and difficult. Wars are created by countries because of expansionism and there isn't a will to stop these wars because the countries believe in expansionism. The refugees are fleeing because of the war created by these countries. It would take a massive global military intervention to stop a war. Take the Syrian war for example, like the other wars in the Mid. East its caused by Iranian and Russian expansionism and supported by another expansionist country, China. These countries are expansionist because they believe in expansionism and have the military power to act on their beliefs. The only thing that has stopped the war spreading to the rest of Mid. East is containment by the US and other countries. Other than a military invasion, there are not a lot of options for stopping the war. Every country that is producing refugees requires a military intervention to get them to stop attacking their own people. There isn't enough military power to do a government change.
Smart guy
We need to tell this to US, China, Russia, Nato and other big nations
Culture class and ideology is the problem when large groups of "refugees" settle in one place.
I would accept a temporary citizenship, where they would be able have asylum until their country of origin became safe to live in again, they could also work up some money take with them back to rebuild their own country.
That is ridiculous! Could you imagine the US when it was first being created taking in European immigrants on a temporary citizenship and then sending them back to europe?
@@camerontaylor7471
Actually the refugees should be allowed to stay if they want as long as they pay their taxes. And most of these refugees comes from war torn countries so high chance of them not going back.
You are not considering one thing, if the immigrants have to stay there for multiple generations there will be no way they would intergrate back perfectly into the country they miggrated from.
@@camerontaylor7471dony be ridiculous, they are not white.
It is that simple , a demographic problem.
@@camerontaylor7471 bruh it's not the same. america was made by europeans, and europe is not a country built by immigrants but by natives, you're ridicolous
There is a huge difference between immigrates/refugees and benefit seekers. It would be much better for all to set up humanitarian zones within the native countries and apply international pressure to those government to take care of their own people!
Yeah! Anti immigration/refugee laws only treat the symptom not the disease
That's basically assimalting the problem. You don't fix the problems that way, you only cause more tension
not really for example in libya if france and uae didn"t sell weapons to haftar there would be no war ..
Finally, someone with common sense.
Why not send the refugees to rich countries in middle east? UAE, Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain, Saudi are group of rich countries, they can give settlements and job opportunities.
Stop making their home countries a wasteland?
There's nothing left to blow up in their own countries, so they want to come to ours to blow up ours, next.
Kevin Belcher we are the ones blowing up their countries
The West has not made their home countries a wasteland -- utter nonsense. It's not that simple. The West (especially US/UK) funnels billions of dollars in humanitarian aid money to the middle east. The problems within these countries is both internal and external.
blownspeakersss "humanitarian aid" yeah right, 98% of our foreign aid (America) is in the form of MILITARY AID. Yeah I'm sure all those soldiers and tanks are gonna help bring back Syria's agricultural sector. Don't be a moron, we don't give shit to these countries but bullets and bombs. Calling it foreign aid is a blatant lie.
Alvin Tossler Absolutely WRONG. The US gives 3 times MORE humanitarian aid than military aid. Specifically, they give $10.5 billion in military aid, and $32.5 billion in economic/humanitarian assistance, of which the largest recipient is Afghanistan, followed by several African nations.
Learn: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_foreign_aid
Perhaps ending the wars would help?
But The Economist wants war in Syria (and has pushed for this since atleast August 2013)
You can start a war when you want, but you can't stop it when you want.
What? Are you a moron, what Economist wants is for Russia to stop supporting its president.
Last time I checked there already was a war in Syria
Bengali -
I am ofcourse referring to The Economist's desire to further the conflict in Syria.
Example: The cover of the Economist issue released August 31st, 2013 carries a picture of President Assad with the the headline "Hit Him Hard".
Exposing The Establishment
Sometimes, acting against your enemies is preventing a war rather than causing one.
Ever heard of the Munich conference? You should learn more about the effects of appeasement.
On the personal level I sympathise 100% with Refugee's and Asylum Seekers but what I cannot understand is why hasn't gulf Arab governments done more to help with the crisis.
First set up a MANUAL PROCEDURE: 1. do you really need to resettle? 2. Can you resettle somewhere else in YOUR own country? 3. If not, can you resettle in a neighbouring country? 4. Can you resettle in a country suitable to your LANGUAGE, RELIGION, CULTURE first?
Is the Economist seriously claiming that just three thousand refugees have been resettled in Germany?
Well, that’s the last video I ever watch from them.
And you say that „when they return home“. Well the problem is that they don’t want to leave any more. That’s the problem. Once the conflict is over, they have to leave. But they don’t and they still eat off our system.
Just stop bombing shit down.
most of the countries current refugees are coming from are countries the US has never bombed, mostly because there was no US interest involved (oil).
dhermitmorse Yeah, like Syria, Iraq, Pakistan, Afghanistan ... Oh wait...
sebastiaan kruis did you think mentioning 4 countries we have bombed disproved my point? You failed to mention a single Latin American or Asian country and omitted several African countries with ongoing droughts, conflicts, oppressive regimes, or lack of economic opportunities. The refugee crisis is much bigger than what is on the TV. Most refugees are from countries the we have not been involved in.
Once again Uganda knows de way.
They are right about Uganda, i felt at home there, i will never forget that
They are economic migrants.
HibHab69 The assylum process shows that 70% are qualified to get the refugee status. I didn’t know that people are jealous of refugees. It’s not a good thing to be refugee...
I'm sick of companies Like these being so biased to the left
Taking in refugees is the ethical thing to do, but the type of refugees these countries will be taking in is the biggest question. All of the refugees are Muslim. They come from a country where Shariah Law is supreme, and Islamic values have to be uphold constantly. What is the guarantee that these refugees accept democratic values and secularism? We are aware that many detest how secular and " non-islamic " Western countries are. To the point that Muslim migrants basically made parallel world in France and the U.K.
Muslim migrants like to isolate themselves and create their own country in a country enforcing their own laws and courts. These Muslim migrants seem to have this ideological agenda to spread Islam in new territories.
Don't compare the refugees now to the Jews of past, because the refugees' values are incompatible with the modern day Western world.
People in democratic countries take secularism for granted. Once people get out numbered by these refugees, they will enforce their beliefs onto the locals. That's how it works. It's already happening in the U.K. Muslim migrants protesting for Shariah Law in the U.K.
Islam is an ideology with social, political, economic, and military components that competes with democracy and secularism that we take for granted.
Mosques and Islamic Institutions are breeding grounds for extremism in Europe and the U.K., other countries should follow what Italy is doing right now, banning the construction of Mosques.
It would be easy to accept refugees, if it weren't for the cultural indifference. And that multiculturalism agenda is a failure.
1:22 All men who abandoned their families.
Wouldn't that be the same case for any extremist religion sectors too?
This from a guy, that voted for the war in Iraq, killing innocent people, and now takes £400,000 plus benefits for beings an advisor to a Syria charity. People like this make you sick.
this is such a fantasy take on the problem
Diogo, Why?
Where do you want me to begin?
Well, most of the so called "refugees" are only economic migrants who want better lives without being able to integrate in the culture and way of life of the host.
People are different and are going to behave according to their natural instincts, white christians in european cities or towns are more inclined to have people like them in their circle, just like employers want people accustomed to their business and with the proper education of their place. Just like people from the middle east prefer to socialize with each other. Its just natural human behaviour, no one's a bigot or racist just for following their instincts in whom they chose to socialize with.
Refugees and people from disadvantaged places need to get helped in their home soil, not by getting imported: "you don't help Calcutta by importing half Calcutta you just create another one"
Watch this: /watch?v=LPjzfGChGlE
That's why open borders is only going to make things worse for everyone
Diogo, Thanks.
Hey diogo can u give me some info and opinions on germanys refugeee policyy please
Let them in, let them work, care for them. We're human beings.
No no no! Don't let them in at all!
so what do you suggest they do then?
This isn't the only crisis though
This is excellent. I’d like to hear more from Mr. Miliband on this.
Its interesting to see how much money changes hands between organizations dealing with fictional issues like this. Normalcy is rampant and corruption is hardly limited to the countries of origin.
I want another Fantasy Cartography video! :)
first of all even though I am not a European but European Culture and traditions and costumes must be preserved and there must be a some policies over taking refugees like taking the educated ones with qualifications and taking the best from them and remember if someone says he is flaying a war zone remember that in any country the war is not every where like in Afghanistan you see problems in Kandahaar and qunduz but not in all of Afghanistan the same goes for Syria and Lybia and Iraq but the majority of them are scammers who are flaying poverty using the card of war as a leverage !!! but the most important thing is that Europeans need to learn how to enforce their culture on them and making them mix with the society bcuz if this policy wasn't adopted then surely Europe would never be the advanced and amazing and educated Europe with best countries in the world in the Union so Europe needs to learn how to tackle this issue !!! its not a much of a big deal !!! just know to enforce your culture
I still could't get Miliband's soultion on refugee crisis... You want poor countries to take more refugees and the western countries to aid them? The problem arising through this notion is not only does the demographics change but the poor countries will get poorer.... one sick man + one sick man does't make a healthy man, it makes a SUPER SICK MAN.
We need to help them rebuild their country!
We can’t take in hundreds of thousands people with other cultures as us.
It is ineffecient!
I'm fade up of seeing this BIJYU guy anywhere and everywhere!
When I opened this, I thought it was a The Witcher 3 trailer haha
Higher power please come and make life beautiful for all....
Uganda I love you
HAY, IT WOULD BE INTERESTING TO ADDRESS THE REFUGEE SITUATION ON THE NORTHERN PART OF BRAZIL, WHERE THOUSANDS OF VENEZUELANS CROSS EVERYDAY TRYING TO AVOID FAMINE AND POVERTY LED BY THE BOLIVARIAN REGIME OF MADURO.
Just a quick on the info graphic why aren't the 500,000+ Syrian refugees taken in my Germany counted ? Am I right in saying they aren't classed as permanent re-settles thats why ?
let be real no country should be taking any more refugee. but we should stop war and eveyone stay in their own country...
How to solve the refugee crises:
>Close borders
>Announce 0 amnesty and 0 tolerance policies
>Refugee crises stop.
Aaron .Nunez But how does that solve the refugee crisis? “Refugee crisis” means refugees being in crisis so this way you are increasing the humanitarian crisis of the refugees not solving it... what a dumbo.
What about South America countries like Argentina with easy clear path to citizenship if I was in the situation I would definitely be looking for a country that I could get on with my life and not be sitting in a refugee camp
What 'support' do the main refugee holding countries need, other than being told repeatedly to let refugees work? Surely that would make having the refugees so much easier I don't understand at all why countries like Pakistan do not let refugees work? Or even insist that they do?
STOP MAKING THEM REFUGEES
I think giving aid to the nearest safe country to act as a host country's would be best.
Liberals can help the people in need.
Concervitives don't need to be scared of the 'bad desert people'
Deport them ?
Won’t change anything
1:56 because creating jobs is easy and we can just do that.
How to solve my sexual crisis?
Fair and ethical trade will solve refugee crisis
America wreaks havoc in the middle east and then leaves Europe to deal with the humanitarian crisis by themselves
I loves this channel
Very informative
Troubled ones need to find other ways to protect themselves
ECONOMIST...Need an update/solution URGENTLY...
I feel so sad
No genuine refugee needs to travel across two continents to find safety.
Raising the walls will not permanently solve their problem. If we know that the majority of them are economic emigrants, only solution would be to return these immigrants safety and economically support the prosperity in their country. Watch Dubai, Qatar, are just some of the examples of prosperous cities, and they are supported by America. Why not to help the Saudi Arabian government or other city in Central Asia to build a prosperous city. This would keep them economically in their country. If we do not do that, we will have a constant pretensions towards the West countries. If you want to save a white race from extermination, a new war will not solve the problem. and if the war arrives, the people of the white race will most be the ones who will die because they have been living for such a long time in the comfort zone. They will not know how to manage the war. On the other hand, most immigrants are get used to it to conflicts and wars, and in the name of their religion they will easily spend their lives on the war. Think about it before you decided to go into war.
Didn't the Economist praise the refugees' entrepreneurial prowess in an earlier video? Are they a gift to the hosting country or a burden? Make your mind up. If they're a gift, then rich Western nations should refrain from stealing them from middle-income countries.
I remember you. I dont know if you are really dumb or trolling really fucking hard. The last video they proposed to let refugees work by an example because its a net positive on the refugees. They use the example of second world war here a) Because there were no formal refugee agrements at the time (the convention was signed in 1951) b)the conditions of refugees were different at the time (they were allowed to work for example)
Lastly, the previous video was an opinion of someone and this is the video from a different perspective (someone who isnt a member of the economist). This should be obvious to most people but i will be clear, PUBLICATIONS like the Economist are NOT a MONOLITH of ideas. Writers and Editors have differing opinions and their own way that they think is the most effective to tackle an issue.
If you read the magazine and not just consumed media in video format you would know this pretty fucking obvious thing.
I think you actually agree with me that it is disingenuous to suggest, on the one hand, that refugees are a net positive and, on the other, that refugees are a burden that the West should accept to take out of guilt, etc. I take your point re editorial oversight but it is irrelevant to my point. You can call it a broad church; I can call it incoherence.
I have stopped reading the magazine since some years ago due to frustration with their editorial stance (oh, believe you me, there is one). As for the videos, I only "consume" them in the sense that they amuse me with their clumsy logical gymnastics and linguistic abuse.
I wonder if anyone has wondered why the majority of immigrants crossing the Channel are young men. Could it be that they are doing so to avoid doing military service in their own countries. That would be my guess. Reintroduce National Service may be the answer.
1:30 lol that shirt. children's physiotherapy.
Title is misleading, it doesn’t offer any solution whatsoever.
You should know about Swedish,,, Germany. Crisis
Turkey has 4 million refugees not 2.9 and EU promised 8 billion but only payed 4 billion
talking about what makes the problem isnt the solution
How to solve:
Build better refugee camps in near areas , not mass migration.
End wars! Rebuild infrastructure
We need alot better refugee camps
Since the second world war, the world's population has tripled. Our earth does not have the resources to supply all those extra humans with a western living standard. The UN Convention on Refugees is out of date.
Don't let them in
I don't see how any government can provide jobs, education, clean water, and health care to all its citizens if they persist in having large families. And when they fail, you get insurgency.
The world's population has doubled since the 1954 UN Refugee Convention was signed. If you can't feed and educate them, then don't breed them.
No one should resettle refugees at all. They should be assisted with education for the women and contraception in a form they can use. Moving refugees from one country to another does absolutely nothing to alleviate the world refugee crisis. As fast as one leaves his home country he is quickly replaced by two more babies - future refugees.
Stop wars first
Send them to the US and Russia
then rebuild their countries funded by the US and rich Arab countries
then send them back.
Abhay Achal, You mean send them to Iran, Russia, and China. The countries that actually caused this problem in the first place.
Abhay Achal You really think those refugees would want to go back to their countries once they settle in rich countries like the US? They’ll never leave
I don't think he really offered much of a solution.
Difficult to solve.
Agree with the proposal: allow them to work! But, millions of native citizens in the world are NOT ALLOWED to work in their own countries because then do not hold the "right credentials." Many other millions of people have their property not legalised thus unable to access credit. Although the problem is more complex than this, the proposal would be a big step ahead.
You drew the map of Turkey wrong. I think you are doing this on purpose
Save Europe unless you want to have all the race issues the USA has.
The US has stolen and enslaved millions of Africans. That's a different story than in Europe.
I'm more concerned about what happened to the Jewish population in Europe between 1933 and 1945. This is not the first time the radical forces fuel fear against minorities.
KingWak You need to study real history unless you also think Christopher Columbus discovered America. Those are all American myths. No, Africans enslaved their own people. They had an existing slave trade. Americans bought slaves from the African slave trade.
KingWak at that time the US was european....
3:07 eheem so the millioms of ukrainiams went nowhere? Btw pilamd has over a million of refuges.
Give money to kids daily if they come to school thats how India educates its people.
Do The economist afraid of showing refugee data of India???
Well like the guy who is speaking in the video
He didn't leave UK
So will not the Syrian and the Africa refugees from Europe .they have not come for long time they have came for forever
发达国家投资最不发达国家发展工业，把难民送去干活，发达国家多花点钱降低国内治安风险挺值的。
There is no solution unfortunately. It's just a tragedy.
I totally agree with what he said. We need to let in more refugees!
That won't solve nothing ... Then too many will come ...no no
Uganda 🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬👏👏👏😘😘😘😘😘😘😘
Yall think too much. The easiest solution to this is: stop funding wars. Fucking duh!
Turkey most affected
WHY is it a problem of western countries?
Yes I agree this is not a western problem ...refugees from Somalia should be able to find a neighbouring country...refugees from Syria should find a neighbouring country ... why do they have to cross many countries in europe ... they need to fight for their countrys Europe does not have the capacity
Propagandist BS
Helicopters and gunships
Thomas Miller Back to wherever the came from
Europe is for European, Muslims countries are for Muslims with similar culture, go there, NOT HERE. STOP ISLAMIZATION.
What about other arab nations? Why aren’t they accepting refugee?
Forced? Bullshit!
Immigrants
no
Yes
Robert Walpole we have one place in the world: the land of Israel.
Avraham Yeuda And even that isn't rightfully yours. Oh, the agony.
Two lies in the first 11 seconds of the video. Welp
No it wasn't I fact checked it and the UN agrees with those claims
Pakistan is every where 😂😂
Given enough time, Europe will be unrecognizable.
You could say the same thing about the industrial revolution. "Unrecognizable" doesn't necessarily mean anything bad.
Like they make other people's countries?
Change happens, that's the way the world is.
What Ali said, but that being said the Aryans (Vedic civilisation) were actually an ancient Indian people who were the highest civilisation of the first cycle of mankind, and have much to teach us.
E K The only texts where Aryans are mentioned are in Hindu scripts. No historian or archeologist has ever found proof to their existence. So it still remains a myth unless proven otherwise. Living in 21st century and having access to vast sources of knowledge you have a sharper brain than any of your ancestors, your ancestors should be seeing you as inspiration rather than the reverse way xD I never understood the irony of glorifying our past when they were cave dwellers xD
Two Words: "Greater Israel"
FROM ISLAM REFUGEE YOU CAN HAVE ONLY TRUBLE ON THE LONG RUN...fact!!!
Send them to Israel, it’s closer, a Democratic country and they are genetic cousins.
Move all the refugees to Mars
