because the reef is now subject in any given year to potentially devastating bleaching events cause not by solar radiation specifically, but by warming oceans and ocean heat raves, driven by climate change. that's the number one threat to the reef. we had a bleaching event this year. and luckily it didn't last quite long enough for the corals to die. so a little bit of heat, they can go white, they bleach. but if it goes to long, then mortality occurs. they die. and this year we were very lucky just as it was reaching that threshold was walking the tight rope conditions got a little bit better. but in any given year now, the risk could be subject to some pretty severe bleaching events. and so, while there's good news, we certainly can't see being really vigilant and doing everything we can to protect the reef in the future. as much warning. recovering, right? yeah. al jazeera dot com is the address

hi anthony. okay. how do you go from syrian refugees? welcome to syrian refugees. go home. in the past 11 years, turkey has house refugees from syria, and it appears that some people's attitudes towards refugees is beginning to change . let me give you an example. this is layla mohammed story. this video about see went viral in june. and i also want to warn you it's very, very upsetting lou with

me. what is going on in turkey regarding sylvia refugees? that is what we're talking about today. are they being used as political pawns? you can do and i conversation right here, life on youtube. ah, let me ill panel, hello use if a matt serra welcome to the stream. i will get you over to introduce yourself to our viewers. yousif, welcome back. good to have you. please remind our audience, who you are, what you do. think driving me back again. my name's use erm on the editor at large at the public broadcaster g r t world. and this is a very pressing issue. i'm very happy that we're going to be talking about it today to have you umad, welcome to the stream. please love you as around the world who you are,

what you do? i am. i'm a nurse because object i am a foreign policy and secret care on this and i'm looking forward. ready to the discussion today, likewise and hello, sarah, welcome to the stream. introduce yourself to our international viewers. my names are, maybe i am a former refugee in turkey, and i'm a writer and advocacy consultant. so when layla was kicked in the face, in that video, i saw you flinch. who cakes? a little old lady in the face then are folks, unfortunately, a lot of the rhetoric right now in turkey is, can be symbolized in this kick in the face of an older woman. you said, let me bring you in here because you live in turkey. so you also a seeing how turkey house did refugees in house, refugees, particularly from syria and it was until quite recently an incredible success story

integration worked young since we're speaking turkish as well as of speaking our big and it was working beautifully. what happened it was a very big success story and i think on the state level, it still is a success story. but when you have an injection of about 4000000000 people, which are roughly translates to about 5 to 6 percent of the population of the country within a short time span like a decade. this creates stress on the social fabric of a country after the initial welcome war out the 1st 4 or 5 years. and we saw in economic slowdown, we saw refugees staying longer. it turns in from a temporary status to a more permanent status at the general understanding started to change the general

outlook towards refugee started the change and elections are nearing. now we are definitely seeing opposition to church president. reggie type are go on using refugees trying to create phobic feeling throughout the population and it's catching on. it's catching on when normally something goes wrong in this society. the 1st people to get blamed are those who have the most silent voices. those who have the least money. those who are the minority are oppressed. yeah, i so if i'm the director i'm, i'm a, go go ahead. go ahead. yes. about layla mohammad. i think this is and william potent incident, which shows a very regional in the same way be and wasted as a means kicking the old woman in the face totally in human. but on the other side. they're also good aspects in the story which, that this was not put aside by detox or, or to public have ignored this incident. but on the contrast,

this was used by the turkish society at the reminder to do a motivation and policy and propaganda, altitude opposition parties. what you are doing to get some votes and to when they look to 8 over which caused harm to people in actually we live and your was have results. secondly, the governor of got down happened to shit, and many put the parliament members have visited, need met or called and expressed as only they would be. and the person who have kicked her and the faith was persecuted. so these are all aspects in this whole incident and i think. ready with the new equation we have to look at the moment. we can clearly says that the racism in turkey is primarily the economically motivated and politically motivated. so we have seen that what was in the economy as you suppress points out and with the election coming up to 2 weeks and propaganda

against refugees have increased over time. and i'm hopeful, and i hope sincerely for the sake of turkey. it says that after the election, these are some commands again hearing it's regina will decrease hopefully. how do you poor bob? how do you pull back from that level of stella t, sorry, you're not in your head. go ahead. i. i don't agree with a lot of things that have been said, i don't think this issue is actually going to get better after the the election. this is something i mean, i know that there have been apologies in the media, but it's only because this actually reached the media. we also heard a lot of kids are committing suicide because of how they're treated. and school we heard of kids actually dropping out because they cannot go on either in school or find work. people cannot find work rent being increased. this is just,

this is not just a how the government is reacting. this is more than a full b r. that's been used and also maybe the government needs to tackle it systematically. and syrians are we see like for example, only 200000 people have gotten citizenship in and out of more than 3000000 refugees energy. so and also we see the government themselves when they respond, they are also promising to return 1000000 refugees and to fear. and we all know that even the safe spaces are not fate. you. so go ahead, sir, i want to, i want to question you said only 200000 syrians got citizenship out of 3000000. was the expectation to get citizenship when coming to turkey was the expectation to seek asylum, to seek refuge because that's a whole thing. now you're not exactly but is

a getting citizens she's citizenship, precondition to feel safe. because i think one of the reasons why we're seeing this rise in xenophobia arising targeted her harassment towards syrians is the collective understanding inside turkey has changed over the last 23 years. from oh, they need us. there are yes. yes, we're going to protect them too. ok. they're here now. it's more of a permanent fixture. so i think a lot of people couldn't digest this understanding and couldn't except that because generally when we look at the past 11 years about the 1st 6 or 7 of them were very, very good. one or 2 years in between. we started seeing a shift in sentiment and over the last 2 years as elections are nearing and the we seeing an economic downturn now we are seeing, arise that are phobia inside the country and it is undeniable. you do see it. i see it. i wish i didn't see it,

but it wasn't truth that we don't need it. so what is it? what do you see? because we gave you a really gave out here is a very vivid example of a little old lady being assorted. what a you sing and daily life, and you're saying, ah, we are not the greatest host any more. the syrians that the relationship is deteriorating. can you give us one example before we move on? of course, so 1st of all, i still think turkey is the greatest. so as for syrians, because i don't think any other country would have held out of in years without this type of backlash coming. we've seen what happened in france, greece, other countries, a relationship tech is, is the host of the most amount of refugees in the world. so i do understand that, continue with this being deteriorate. well, at 1st, 1st the 1st of all i, i work closely with a lot of syrian, i work closely with a lot of iraq isa dantes who have come to the country and i hear stories from them

. well, when we sit down talk, they'll come to me with their problem. they'll explain problems getting a house, renting a house, problems just regularly, socially problems with their landlords. problems just on the street night looks on the bus or when they're in mass transit or what not. so they, they definitely don't feel the welcome they did a decade ago. and as i said, there's many reasons for that. yeah. ok. let's look at some of those reasons. i'm going to get you to listen to. we have actually festival and then the havoc they kind of analyzing what has happened to really create this tech uptake in hostility towards syrian refugees. this is what i told us earlier, have a listen and then come off the back of this video. even though they are providing cheap labor, is a sense of prejudice that in society bad syrians are taken care of by the stead that states that they are receiving health care and,

and benefits that other turks to not have or that they are responsible for unemployment and none of these are true, they are struggling, but nonetheless, i think it's vivian's scape go to it. and as such, you now have turkey's political actors across the political spectrum. that is both the opposition and government building election platforms on the pledge of a sending syrians back. in fact, of the blaming the back reduced, couldn't even serve are gone of 1st it could cover up of the root causes of turkey's economic troubles. and secondly, it could also make the support for no charge for asians in northern syria because that is depicted as a path to send their effigies back to their homeland a man. so when comes to turkey, we have to consider with it in proportion and relation to each other. so what the

typical position is proposing is that they will win the elections and all of the syrians back in 2. ready years by making an agreement with us, that was him. so the positions promising to send all the scene if we just back to the person into the regime who actually force them to play out of the country, the 1st place and to has tortured kids menu. and it's they doing to do so. so in contrast to that, the took the scholar meant for promising to enable the one to return soon if you spec to syria and save stones. and even though this is something, discuss it in the media. and also i'm to syrians, we have to clearly state that under low and under the to tissue. appreciate position does not refugee they are under temporary protection. so it's the obligation of the to government or any new government which will come to find ways to present the day to return soon if reduce back to see or like to kid with the u. r. q. refugees in the iraqi war in the early 2,

thousands. so therefore we have to say this and secondly, about the proportions 200000. took its citizens among the soon if reduced is not low number because over 250000 soon if you g u p union almost collapses over the distribution. i don't do you pin, you remember states. so this is something that they have to say that the nation would have to eat me. i need to as a matter, just take a pause a moment so sarah can add to the conversation. go ahead sir. back back to the i know we both are focusing on the 200 number 1000 number that i actually mentioned in the beginning. it's actually very good that fields are being integrated into society, but these are very small margins. and usually they are who have money, who have, who managed to actually have their money from syria and they're going to benefit the turkish side. but as a theory and myself as someone who used to be

a refugee in turkey, and a lot of my friends right now are not even able, the turkish government is not allowing them as not facilitating legal measures to actually be legal in, in turkey. so this is our problem as well. what we're hearing and their rhetoric when it comes to like we are protecting refugees, is actually the opposite is happening in real life like an officer. i'm not saying that maybe the president, i'm think an officer can warn my life if they didn't approve my cam. like i have a friend who an officer, even when she was a greeting the country, an officer actually tore her passport from 2010. and now she doesn't have a back when she stuck in turkey as an illegal person. so these are the, the stuff that i'm actually talking about. so let me have a look and, and listen to present one. this was back in may of this year, a plan to volunteer really return. syrian refugees is have

a listen to the plan. thought to see are them crucial? finance my international charity organizations were planning to build 200000 new homes for syrians in 13 different locations in syria. my purpose is to make it possible for 1000000 syrians to return to the cities under good conditions. the war in serious started when the regime began attacking civilians in western countries supporting opposition groups in syria. if they continue to support syria will be a safe and stable place. very quickly. you said, help me out. understand with understanding this pal. i'm going to show festival as you, as a map of syria and who is in control at the moment. i'm just going to close in a little bit. the areas that we're looking at are the areas in the green with dark dots. those are the areas that are controlled by turkey. so here and here, and here. so if the president wants to return syrian refugees, there's only

a tiny amount of syria that they can actually go back to. and the rest is not good territory or safe territory for them to be in. this doesn't seem to be a sound plan to me, but i am a civilian. what do i know use of went back to the 2019 to president had struck a deal with the americans and the russians to be able to expand what he called the safe on 30 kilometers apart and 30 miles interest area and pushed back a group known as the y p g, a group that tricky calls terrorists, but makes up the bulk of the syrian democratic forces at the same time a u. s. allies. so this has been a flash point between us, and i don't want to get too into a off track. but one of the important things is that you wants to be able to open up a safe, don't bring syrian refugees back into syria,

build up these places he had talked with. i'm going to america before the former german chance. i'd step down about a huge, massive project building brick houses in it live. this is a project that you want to expand to other areas as well. but again, there needs to be security 1st. if you don't have security, you can build, if you can't bill, you can attract refugees to come back. what do that come back to if they're not gonna come back to ruin? so the whole idea is to be able to secure, and it's kind of ironic actually, while we're talking right now i'm actually in. so g, russia, and the turkeys president is going to meet with the russian president tomorrow, and syria will be top of the agenda when they're talking. so, most likely a new turkish operation could happen to a push into areas like men be gentle repost to be able to and i create a little more sure there i want to, i want to just say that when we talk about voluntary research return,

we're not talking about fronting return, we are talking about bringing syrians who are trying to make a life in turkey or anywhere else that's somewhere safe and forcing them to go back . i know a lot of peer into actually, we're under the voluntary return, did not choose that. and these safe spaces are not safe and are not, they don't provide a future or for their future. we're coming back. and we need to remember that when we're talking about where should refugees go. i feel like it's the last thing to think about, refugees. that's been happening, like we're not thinking about the autonomy of refugees. we're not giving them a choice of where they want to live and this should be a human rights issue. this should be that students who were forced to leave their country. and let's also acknowledge that turkey has political agenda and see you and they have forces in syria. so it's one of the major players a lot alongside. so guess the west that you're on, let me bring some thoughts from our audience who are watching this conversation

right. now laken, thank you for being part of the show. it's really disturbing. syrians are being abused and tacky with cheap salaries and being humiliated in turkey as well as a lot of reaction to layla mohammad. i believe at the moment she is in the hospital getting treatment and she is recovering. thank you for your concern about layla's. she was the, the elderly lady he was kicked in the face. turkey has taken on a big row in the war in syria. what kentucky honestly do to help syrians or the use of a said, explained how many years that turkey has hosted and hosted. well, so in refugees in turkey and then one more thing is, is really important. i'm gonna put this to you, a man. why can't turkey do something more practical, make a public works project where people can actually boost their lives. so this economic problem that is not just impacting turkey, but many countries around the world. maybe the focus should be on the economic

issue rather than on the syrians over let me to show you something. i know you know this already, but i want to show this to you because i think it's really important to have a look at this. the number of refugees in turkey, about 3600000, the number of refugees being hosted in other places around the world. you can see how generous toki is with hosting refugees. 3.6000000 refugees or syrians in turkey, 84000000 turkish people. so that is litty even book against a tiny minority seems misplaced, or how about a different economic approach? wouldn't that be more productive than blaming refugees? so we have to say clearly that it's not the took the government policy to blame the refugees. but the took a position, an expert should the, the left us political parties, which is where we interesting know the cost of what left is political parties,

defense refugees and why being against them took its opposite right, being defending refugee and enough to support his party in turkey and some squint a small parties, they have mainly to cause and to augment against its experiment, the economy, and the 2nd migration in their, intertwined with each other. so they are in much hope if they can push on the migration and economy cause that they can win the elections and therefore the took a column. it is in a different position and trying to make arguments in an area where it's not the most best fit because it's the right wing party. and here we have also to say that what can to do, i think, pointed economical support from the european union, from international and from the united states of america. other countries asked is not enough. and a good to me, to the, from new pinion to took your head into a symptom of increasing into so that, that only expand ok. or i guess i just could just just give me just

a tiny pause. i just wanna end on something use of could you expand on just a moment just the reason i'm doing this is because we started with an awful story about layla mohammad. i want to close his story that maybe gives us a little bit more hope about a syrian refugee in turkey. this is ahmed story homage was doing an interview in the street and a lot of turkish people gathered around him and started bullying him. this is where i'm going to show you this video. first of all, let's have a look and let the magicks, let him know to let out your lady. uh, she saw yellow, a musical on you. if you had been bought a lot of the you from getting busy, probably your sins in person been earned and g, o, u d as in larry o n g menaja, my little to comment, oh, hold on to a meant doc. legitimately kendall reading. see if there's a bundle you a turkish businessman saw that video. he was so upset by that. he decided that he
