There are. What guarantees ready will be given to the people who will be attending the minimal workshop we listen im supposed to explain college eyes for someone who is also terrorizing we meet with global newsmakers and talk about the stories that matter to 0. Millions of Syrian Refugees has settled in turkey of the past several years they were initially welcomed but now many locals are starting to resent the presence of any ok and im here in the stream tweet us your thoughts or join us live on youtube. Tokiko smaller than any other country in the world most of them come from syria which has been fighting a civil war for the past 8 years as turkeys economy weakens what was once a point of National Pride is now a lie bill a t for the government officials find themselves under pressure as public sentiment rises across the nation to handle overcrowding in Istanbul Turkish authorities are planning to relocate thousands of syrians into other cities potentially separating them from their family members the government has also reportedly been rounding up and deporting hundreds of syrians over the past few months in violation of International Law turkey denies this claim saying it helps refugees and does not deport them but turkey cant host 3600000 syrians indefinitely and were refugees worried that their time in the country is running out so to discuss these issues joining us today we have from istanbul use of iran he is a political analyst for t. R. T. World from boston massachusetts. A syrian writer and human rights activists shes also a refugee who lived in turkey for 2 years and also speaking to us from istanbul is diego cucolo a freelance reporter and author of 7 syrians war accounts from Syrian Refugees we also invited turkish officials to join us and we reached out to several of them but they did not respond to us but we are very grateful for you guess being in this conversation yousif this idea of anti syrian sentiment have you seen it what does it look like in turkey. Well obviously it does exist any time you have such a mass exodus of refugees and injection of a minority immediately in such a small amount of time were talking about 3600000. 00 refugees as you stated and thats just the registered amount of east thats just Syrian Refugees when you add kids and. Also. Off the books of the legal amount of nearly 5000000 thats about 67 percent of the turkish population and thats a tremendous amount of pressure on the social fabric of a country when that number is injected all the span of 3 to 4 years so you know who could be a little there could be a little negative sentiment amongst the very understandable this is human nature but the turks are very very tolerant and we saw this. Mass entrance of refugees into another country western country your country. For example even im sure would be much more dire circumstances of monster of ease and a much greater backlash amongst the public. Speaking of that sentiment i want to share this from twitter someone who says this is a super contentious topic in turkey and i need to inform you as a turk there is more than meets the eye but every single one of the millions of Syrian Refugees welcome to deter key are allowed to go to istanbul that is the rule refugees are distributed he goes on tweeting to the stream to say i am wary of reports a handful of syrians are sent back to active war zones without qualifying each case where and why they were sent back and wary of the matter becoming a domestic political football and im wary the rest of the world is not doing enough so sorry give this one to you because there was a point where you were in istanbul as a syrian refugee talk to us about how you saw this issue what this person on un twitter describes as very kind of tension how was it for you. Well i was there in 2014 around the beginning and summer and back then we were kind of new in in turkey you know it was still. The wave of migration to were new was still new as well and. Everything what. Was it was it was a normal welcoming atmosphere at the time of course there is no black and white of course there was a lot of people who were struggling you know to make ends meet. But for me i was in between jobs and trying to find it and like many people my age at the time and i actually ended up i couldnt stay in istanbul because you have to understand that people who are in istanbul who are people who work in. Factories and or they are able to go to college in istanbul and afford Living Expenses there and for me at the time i couldnt so i moved to the syrian turkish borders in gaza and i ended up working there i guess i want to play a little clip this is a. Local ad he was talking about chops and also refugees have a listen to him this was just a few weeks ago. In the muslim culture that i myself for example im a baker because foreigners live in my country i cannot easily find a job in my sector before 2012 there were probably 100 bakeries looking for bakers through online ads as well now the bakers in our country are looking for work. Whichever bakery you go to its whose backs turkomans syrians afghans should go back to their countries as soon as possible. That if an understandable opinion if you are struggling if you notice that your profession is is being pressurised by other people coming into your neighborhood when i ask yourself what does anti syrian sentiment look like he kind of bypassed it a little bad he didnt really explain what it might look like he spent a lot of time a Syrian Refugees what is their experience as you report. Yes so i think the man in that quote was referring to illegal workers who are paid less than turkish citizens and would be more attractive buyers who are Turkish Companies looking to save on all those skilled labor. The fact is most of the syrians in turkey do not have work permits their work permit initiative has built about 65000 syrians have work permits was the figure at the end of 2002 and theres 3600000 syrians in turkey so its a really small number so if you have this an area where you have very cheap labor and you have an economic crisis which is ongoing in turkey some people might feel like syrians are being. Unjustly. Preferred people looking for low skilled labor. Also the last few years have been very difficult in turkey theres been a lot of elections a lot of. By lance there was a difficult period in 2016 the countrys been through a lot so people are emotional we the moment with the economic downturn. Has become an easy target to plant for many people here so that translates into comments like what you just saw are. Sometimes more interrupts discrimination or just books or comments in the streets might make people feel on welcome but i would just say whats been said so far as 100 percent true its difficult to host this number of people in any country. So the balance of those 2 things that resentment and and yet the responsibility of hosting that many people is being represented online i want to share this from the divine on twitter who says the Current Situation of 3000000 former Syrian Refugees in turkey are at the blink if social catastrophe i hear terrible things about refugees from my town which is a small town in west turkey as the economy is bankrupting a social enmity is growing against refugees so hes linking the idea of the worsening economy in with that and thats the point that others have picked up on and so i want to play this video comment we got from a selim says ak is a ph d. Candidate Brown University you said ill direct this to you have a listen. The refugee crisis has already cost the country over 40000000000. 00 which is becoming extremely controversial as the countrys economic troubles worsen and polls show overwhelming cross partisan support for an end to the open door policy and gradually petri dish and of Syrian Refugees if im crazy indeed keen on continuing its open door policy it will have to do it against impossibly difficult towards against every day of public opposition and thats going to create lots of political controversy. What role is the economy playing in this is that it is playing a huge role in the increase in 87. 00 towards refugees and its only natural when the economy is in a downturn that people are looking for someone to blame and refugees are an ideal target oh we saw the refugees as a huge target during local elections and so are the nationalist parties and the major opposition use that as part of their Election Campaign and it was a very very successful they were able to capture a sample they were able to capture anger and after the elections it looks like the ruling party got the message it does have to deal with this refugee problem then we are now seeing the president will lead it attempting to find solutions to this refugee problem the major solution he sees it is a repeat your evasion but you cant just dump these refugees back in to a war zone triggers trying to sit down at the table with russia and secure a cease fire and theyre trying to talk to the americans secure a safe zone in northeast syria finding trying to find areas where they can secure and bring refugees back and when we also talk about 3500000 refugees in turkey we also need to remember the internally displaced People Living in areas that turkey is present and turkey has influence in serious while when you take that number into account were talking about another 6000000 people in the euphrates shields zone and be up oliver operation olive green zone which encompasses freend. All of these areas so you have turkey clint responsible for almost 9000000 syrians right now and this is an absurd number were talking about 30 percent of the preconcert syrian population. I want to share a story its a Foreign Policy story that you zorra worked on. Its a question of semantics maybe or maybe practicalities use of the saying we patch relation and in this Foreign Policy article here right here my laptop you call it deportation policy theres a difference here in the way you are seeing this issue explain. Well its its not really too complicated what i have seen is that there has been a large number of syrians being deported against their will from turkey which breaks several law of International Laws and human rights laws so. And i dont people and and i i lived in tricky and i left it about 3 to 4 years ago and i still have a lot of connections there and it really pains me to see people who have recently stopped feeling safe in tricky even though they sought refuge there. So i mentioned to people in the article i mentioned he shot my mom up and then he left and both of them were deported around the same time one of them was killed we are trying to reenter through here his name is he shot his mohammad i really dont want his name to be forgotten because he was a young man and he had 3 kids. And its really not fair to see how Turkish Police on the borders are have treated this man while he was trying to reenter and many many times. During that month that he was deported and if you going to report people deport people back at least deport them somewhere safe and we all know that syria right now is nothing but safe so and how do you allow the right now is still stuck and i talk to him on a daily basis he is still stuck in Northern Syria and he is in hiding because he has been. Critical of the h. D. Fi and before when he was in syria he has been critical of mosul and i like many may be fighters who are right now still fighting in syria he believes in democracy and human rights and unfortunately that puts him. Great picture so i just the reason why i called it the policy is because of those stories that i have been hearing and they have been forced to sign either decortication papers or they have worse and found themselves on the syrian turkish workers being deported to a war zone so thats why i called it. Understandable from some members of our community in as here writes in his frustration with this and he says turkey should prompt european states to take on responsibility because unless turkey manages the mass refugee influx from syria the most aggrieved side within this process will be European Countries that diego your take on what the e. U. s role in all of this has been should be is. Well thats a question a lot of people are asking themselves the e. U. Or made a deal with. Q. So. Migration flows that we saw in 20132016 when there was large amounts of people crossing on boats to greece and also overland to bulgaria so we saw a bad deal stem a lot of that flow it continues a. Bit of a trickle form but regarding what the responsibility is for european states they fund some of these Removal Centers according to an atlantic article that was published today. There is a lot of e. U. Money going to turkey to. Take care of syrians remain here busy funding out syrians access Education Access food busy runs and also take care of their medical needs a lot of the funding goes to hospitals for syrians and other migrants in turkey so the e. U. Interior has a lot of leverage when it comes to dealing with the situation but at the same time many officials are. Busy they find it difficult to speak out or criticize turkey because again turkey is taking brunt of the situation and they dont want to. Upset anyone and cause another migration especially now that we see advances in and could be more syrians crossing the border into turkey so there is this kind of tension where everybody is trying to do their best and then unfortunately have these deportation stories which are rising more and more in the news. Well i wish i had an answer for your question but what i do i completely disagree with diego especially on the funds i mean turkey is spent about 37000000000 dollars this is your way and atta and the us paid i believe 2200000000. 00 of the 6000000000. 00 that they promised in the my great deal which is a comical i mean comical why is turkey shouldering the financial burden is not a rich country you have many rich here in countries that could help out since seeing as theyre not doing anything to take care of these refugees the least they can do is provide more financial support. The other promises made in the migrant deal that would also not be kept a they had promised turkey because of free travel for turkish citizens that was. Their own promise but especially by National Aspect right now as the country is going through an economic downturn it could really use some e. U. Support to do some support from the United States i mean we see america spending 5000000. 00 to 5000000000. 00 out of all that 5000000000. 00 would be a lot better spent even to terri care some of these Syrian Refugees and turkey does need money taken care of refugees providing medical Services Education Services Food this is all cost money and this is money that turkey right now does not have it doesnt he doesnt need to continue providing these services for refugees now and Angela Merkel just earlier today i just read that she had talked with the president and also the. Preclear taka said also expressed concern and that they were thinking about helping this eat up the implementation of the e. U. Migrant deal so it seems that theyre slowly starting to see the danger arising in it but because the collapse and it could be another 1. 00 to 2000000. 00 refugees on terror historians that i i dont they. Use of it is obvious from this conversation this is a very nuanced conversation there is so much that turkey is doing that is a rising criticism of what theyre doing and amid start an ad campaign to try and get turkey locals to see what the contribution refugees can make to their society have a look at this its fascinating. But a bank. A bank. Account that ive been. Chosen on a. Sister and mom. And a to come. Home. Because it was. Powerful ad campaign there but underlying it all are these very strong sentiments and i want to give you a taste of 21 on you tube this is and ray who says there is negative sentiment towards europe in istanbul in turkey and other external powers because a lot of people feel that turkey is doing europes dirty work so thats on one hand and the other someone else writing on you tube john who says well the same problems are happening in europe especially in germany many people in germany dont understand why syrians dont go home to rebuild their own country so when we talk about going home we actually spoke to someone who sent us a video comment and. You know him well because he was actually the coauthor of that Foreign Policy piece you wrote this is key and here is his explanation for the options that syrians half. Theres a notion that were hearing more frequently that syria is now safe for return for refugees at least most of it is and this could be further from the truth factoring in the system under heavy Russian Syrian Air strikes and shelling and that is ruled by a brutal Organization Called the heat a show there is also cases of state syrian state repression as well many areas that have been reclaimed by the Syrian Government including east aleppo which which was which took place over a year ago well over your box really that the return of basic serves that many syrians rely on coming to terms and because of her city and other social services these are questions that are not been respondent responded to or and addressed and these are also issues that have not been clarified so it gets very competent for see refugees. So how do we go about clarifying those questions that came mentioned well. As we were talking previously the refugee problem is not just a humanitarian problem its also a political one so assad is still in power backed by russia and iran and weve seen how when you asked do other countries barest wants ability of course they do and in both. Maintaining and and in political. I mean as and its really important to stress that because yes on the syrian round we could not build a cohesive. Opposition due to a lot of. Donor fatigue and a lot of problems within our community but at the same time theres a huge responsibility on the International World because it is seeing the atrocities that is happening to us and its still refusing to to act on it and weve seen many many red lines are being crossed and its fine to the world and seen i just really when it all goes out to all the Political Science that are you that i do the analysis it all goes to waste when i say when i hear about how many people are being killed and then i dont really are going to put this to you this is really important we quoted you article from the Foreign Policy magazine a comment in Foreign Policy following your article not so long after that from the president ial Communications Director this is a challenge for you and people like in a set of assigning blame to those who are not at fault governments and human rights organizations chippie promoting International Cooperation to find a political solution what solutions to you have well its really hard for us to talk about political solution right now have been calling for a political solution since 2011 when we started the balloon turned into a war we really needed the support in 2013 and i had to be the person who was like its too late now because its really its but also when youre saying sorry hes saying its too late. Im saying that weve lost a lot of people and im saying that as long as the world keep looking at us as numbers and not as people who are demanding who had to americans who have. A policy or a vision for a country that were trying to build its not going to be sold because right now our are or is not its the people against the government its now look whole world including russia and iran and the u. S. And tricky so its also a very sobering words that as we wrap up our conversation sarra and yousif and diego thank you very much for joining us on the stream today many have a will with this from twitter it would be unfair on turkeys part to be single handedly hosting a 1000000 syrians 3600000 not a small number but keeping the war in mind i believe turkey should continue its open door policy thank you for all of your comments we continue online as always many can i on twitter act a. J. Stream thank you guess.

Sirrah weve heard what the best part of 3 months of these big rallies taking place now across hong kong presumably despite the fact that their leaders have been literally lifted off the streets the people who go out and demonstrate to give up on what the 5 key central demands.

Fighting around the yemeni city of aden is exposing growing rifts in the saudi emirates the coalition yemens president wants saudi arabia to step in and stop the u. A. E. From attacking his forces however the iraqis insist they are targeting terrorists. This is said to be the aftermath of strikes in aden yemen internationally recognized government is furious the u. S. Bombed its positions. Allowing separatists to retake territory that lost to saudi backed Government Forces 24 hours. Both sides pulling in reinforcements to battle over a divided Southern City and a country fractured by years of war like at me when im lost in all i you didnt governorates us safe now were dealing with some pockets and terrorist hideouts which are sadly involved with what hes cold the legal government. Yemens government condemned the u. A. E. Bombing of its forces saying it had caused hundreds of deaths and injuries in a statement its Defense Ministry said it held the emirates responsible for what it called a blatant aggression and president rubber manso hardys urged saudi arabia to intervene again separate us from the Southern Transitional council a part of the saudi Iraqi Coalition thats fine the rebels less than 3 weeks ago they took over this is even aden state of the saudi backed internationally recognized Yemeni Government. On wednesday Government Forces took the nearby coastal town of zinjibar before pushing into aden on thursday though they withdrew again president harry said it was to spare the city and its people along what labor would not only our situation is good in the troops morale is high were heading to. And we will free every inch of the southern territory the violence has exposed an apparent rift in the saudi u. A. E. Coalition each country backing opposing sides in southern yemen which was a separate country until 990. 00 the saudis and the marauders are divided on this issues because for this from a saudi perspective what they had always wanted is to ensure that they who are not a threat that can operate across the border and launch attacks where its rocket attacks or or drone attacks into saudi arabia what the United Arab Emirates wants to do instead of course is to establish an independent Southern State and these 2 objectives to do not align with the Yemeni Government asked for the United Nations to meet on the iraqi strikes 60000 people have left the city attains of thousands remain in harms way as the fighting intensifies alexia brian al jazeera. Sami hamdi is a middle east analyst and editor of the Current Affairs Magazine International interest he explained the rifts in the saudi amorality coalition. I think its important to understand that the u. A. E. Has been backing the son of separatists for quite some time and were talking actually a few years now when 100 busied initially wanted to back the 7 separatists he went to been sent men and he told him listen when so many there are only 2 powers that can fight the who is on the ground realistically the other is slower the Muslim Brotherhood who do you eat despise with the venom and there are the sudden separatists in the side expressed concern and indeed International Governments expressed concern that the u. A. E. Were backing this and the separatist bin zaid would tell been said men that this is the lesser of 2 evils and that he could handle the Independence Movement since then the u. A. E. Has been going around the ports within southern yemen taking over those ports taking over psychiatrist essentially expanding its maritime policy once its cemented that it gave it fulfilled its promise to the southern separatists and allowed them to take over added now the problem here is that its very interesting to hear the calls in saudi to intervene implying saudi hasnt done enough to intervene against the u. A. E. Because essentially the saudis now are in a very strange situation they dont want to throw away their lives with the u. A. E. They realize is a humiliating situation for them and now been said man is caught in this very hesitant situation in the beginning when the sudden separatists are being driven back after he took added initially been so many rode the wave he sort of the yemeni parties united so he decided to back them he knew that they would retake i dont so he wanted to be able to say i supported you in this now the son of separatists are taking the territory again from adnan taking the territory against saudi arabia is not sure whether to support that because we have to ask the question what do you even dared to launch airstrikes against the groups backed by saudi. They wouldnt unless they knew that saudi was as it unless they knew that saudi was contemplating letting go of this support for the International Recognized government the brazilian president joy of also narrow has banned land burning for 60 days after a global outcry over fires raging in the amazon but he still wants more development in the rain forest which is sure to anger environmentalists and many World Leaders than all swine flu reports now from the Northwestern State of radomir. It takes a tough 3 to hack a living from the searing hot inhospitable amazon. They come to rick kaplan to plant soya yams much else besides they do so legally but the vulnerable in this huge pool the peace region to illegal speculators. Theyre grabbing all of that area part of the john marine nature reserve theyre grabbing everything and the word is they will cut everything down and if they do then theyll set it on fire. This man said he feared for his life in his identity was revealed saying neither the police nor the authorities have the resources to protect him from neighbors who covered his land just when the president is being called upon to do more by the International Community and some of those living here to do more to defend the amazon he moves in the opposite direction he invites more developments which many living here fill the environment and themselves a greater risk. President says too much of this forest is protected neither nature reserves or indigenous reservations the poverty awaits those who dont take advantage. But this rancher said he thought there had been enough deforestation. On has to have cattle we dont need to de force anything else though just take care of the lands that are already deforested take care of the rivers of the spring this cattle is what we live from. However he said he doesnt blame the president for the lang grabs all the fires he believes the region is simply too big to Police Despite the efforts of the local authorities. Crime happens everywhere however our policies have been positive. But because of the size of the state and the way its land is occupied our policies will take time to work to guarantee security in both urban and rural areas. Other small farming can and should only be done in a sustainable way. Some people dont respect the law and this creates a bad image of our country abroad but we keep fighting for local farmers who work with nature the ecosystem so that we can all survive. Battle for the land has been raging the 1st europeans the dream country there is enough for everyone. By greed corruption and poor management. Of the. Still to come here on aljazeera a 1000000. 00 is on offer for the colombian rebels. Also ahead. Its going to be a whole different ball game
