Syrian Refugees in Turkey: The Evolution of Domestic and International Narratives

04.02.2021 © 2021 Ghaith Alsayed/AP When I moved to Turkey from Brussels back in 2014, citizens of many European capitals perceived the Syrian war as very far away. On the contrary, the war’s tremendous effects were already immediately visible on the streets of Istanbul, Ankara, Izmir, where hundreds of thousands of Syrian refugees would flood Turkish hospitals and migration centres or even turn into beggars showing their passports. This is hardly surprising. Since the start of the ongoing Syrian conflict, Turkey has been bearing the heaviest burden when it comes to hosting refugees compared to other Syria s neighbouring countries (and in absolute terms, too).
