the, the in the past decade, the global refugee crisis has more than doubled, surpassing the 100000000 markets for total displacement. this means that over 1.2 percent of the global population has been forced to leave their homes. and these include refugees, internally displaced people and asylum seekers. is life better after seeing their home country and what happens to the whole country that opens the stores directly g . i'm christy i and you're watching the cost of everything we're today. we're going to be looking at the movement of displace refugees worldwide, and how this affects them as well as the local population.

the never in history have we ever witnessed there being 100000000 displays people. and there is absolutely no a system that will ever be able to support 100000000 people in need without more resources. and unfortunately, the current system is extremely inefficient, as it cost far more to settle refugees in a western nation. then it does to support accommodations and camps were refugees as close as possible to their homes. because by settling refugees in the west, we are using the limited funds in the least efficient way so that many who cannot immigrate, suffer and under funded and underserved caps over 600000 people applied for asylum in the u and 2021. syrians, afghans and iraqis logs the most applications for asylum together. accounting for

almost 40 percent of all applications and the member states with syria being the biggest. in 2021, germany received over 30 percent of asylum applicants in the u, followed by france, spain, italy, and australia. together these 5 number stays received almost 3 quarters of all asylum applications and the u. jeremy is the 2nd largest host community in the world, nearly doubling its refugee population in less than a year with the escalation of the conflict in ukraine. it now hosts over 2200000 refugees, including over 875000 ukraine refugees, 665000 syrian refugees, as well as over a 183000 refugees from afghanistan at a 151000 from iraq in the past decade, the global refugee population has more than doubled. in 2022, we exceeded 30000000 refugees. germany has maintain high levels of support for

accepting refugees, despite the concerns about immigration. and jeremy does not have the law enforcement necessary to keep german or refugee 6. many would argue that germany has reached the breaking point with the amount of stress refugees and migrants have placed on society. jeremy needs to cross laws to cope with the situation and find additional enforcement, social workers and staff to be able to sort out economic migrants from the refugees and process asylum claims before accepting more refugees. in the u. k. asylum seekers are generally barred from work until they have attained refugee status. if they do not receive an initial decision on their asylum claims within 12 months, they can only apply to certain jobs like nurses, social workers, and engineers. the food poverty is a big consequence as prices rise to run a basic household and the burden of taking refugees is draining the european

economies. crime rate is up, drug usage is up and many citizens are getting frustrated. refugees also have impacts and pressure is on clean water energy and the environment. and the situation is turning into a permanent reality and has produced a negative attitude in many ordinary europeans seeing them as a burden on the local economy. many syrian refugees failed to simulate into european societies, though it is no fault of their own. how our syrian supposed to integrate with the population that lives there when they can't work, because they don't know language or the customs. and they don't know anyone. the only way to survive in their new environment is to turn to crime, to survive and support their families. another a central problem that refugees, space is housing. most refugees are sent to live in places far away from cities or in the country side. medical services and health care are generally an affordable to many who fall sick. and cultural differences is perhaps one of the most

complicated challenges that refugee space, as they must learn, to submit to it, and accept it in order to become a genuine part of the refugee hosting country that they now live in racism and prejudice. our normal outcomes of the language barrier and cultural differences between the local population and the refugee families. the worst happens in schools, medical facilities, health care centers, and social service centers. when a refugee applies to work, even when they have all the experiences and abilities, refugees are also exempted from the rights that are given by the state to, with people like enjoying the right of minimum standard of living and security. and they're unfortunately off and exploited. so now let's bring into bill ality, q 3, professor of middle east history at university of mary washington. so net bill, what is the most challenging thing for refugees to face? what about for the host country as well?

sometimes the, the, the biggest issue is numbers, but otherwise i think the biggest issue for refugees would be acclimating to a new society and getting used to the possible for the, the reality that they have to reinvent their lives entirely from the ground up. the moment they arrive in a very strange and alien uh, culture to their own. and for the whole societies it's, it's sort of a similar but in reverse, it can be very hard to successfully seamlessly integrate the refugees into the culture. especially if the culture is not historically welcoming or unsure what to do with them. so that, that varies from country to country though and are, there are things that can be done to alleviate this refugee crisis, as it seems like this is a problem with no viable solution. well, this is the areas that i knew best, namely iraq, later on in the middle east. what are the most vulnerable, the climate change,

there's some list of the most vulnerable countries and of the top 5 iraq in either on or 2 out of the top 5 and, and they've already experienced something like 55 degree summers and $55.00 degree celsius summers which in fahrenheit is, is i don't know something like a $110.00 plus degrees. and humanity cannot exist in a 110 degrees without being indoors without being in the water. you know, all kinds of temporary situations. but you cannot, you cannot exist like that long term. and even if you're indoors with the air conditioning, it's not really a long term solution because air conditioning itself is driven by energy and driven by a and is itself driving climate change. so in those 2 examples, it's getting much worse, but they're not the only 2. i would also observe or argue that the saw held in central africa centric between central and northern africa has been dealing with

sort of an agricultural crisis. for as long as i can remember, and they're not likely to bode well with climate change, meaning that it's probably gonna accelerate the desert application unless there's something i haven't heard of. because i have heard that there is a potential possible positive impact of climate change for some of the middle east that is tied to together with the shifting of the jet, the jet stream in the atlantic. so that it may happen that it actually starts to rain in the middle east due to the shifting jet stream. but aside from that one potential positive which i'm not sure is even going to be true. and i'm not sure i understood it correctly. but it seems like it's mostly very negative. it's certainly negative for iraq, iran, and probably for the saw him as well. as i say, really goes, one rotten apples boils the bunch and refugees are now being looked down on because

they bring crime and violence to ones peaceful neighborhoods. so is there any truth to this and how much more crime has there been since countries have open their doors to refugees? are there stats on this? i do not know the exact statistics and i am very skeptical that the statistics are accurate. because when those statistics like that data points are measured, they're almost always measured in the context of trying to approve and t refugee policies and t migration policies. so i don't actually trust them. i think they're, they're, um, they're, they're sometimes inaccurate. and maybe sometimes they are accurate now, the idea of one rotten apples boiling the whole barrel. there is something to that idea, at least in terms of perception, in that a lot of the refugee populations will have something go wrong. either

visa be between them and the state, you know, the host, the host country state or between them and the, and the host country society. and then it gets blown out of proportion. and it becomes this idea that the society is under threat in crisis. i saw this myself about 67 years ago when after working in the mediterranean, with, with refugees and migrants trying across the mediterranean, immediately after that, like the very next year we're talking 2015 in the 2016. there were all these claims that crime had gone up in places like paris, berlin, and they would, in, in the things that i saw on the internet internet, they would enter splice video of sort of random chaos. and then run a slogan, saying, crime has shut up. well now you fast forward to 2023. nobody's talking about it. at

least they're not talking about that particular wave of refugees, which was massive. it was well over a 1000000 people that made it to europe and nobody's talking about the crime instead. you hear a much deeper story about how so those, those refugees have done quite well. they've an effect to become activist in germany. they're, they, they've learned german. they're, they're, they're working for the betterment of german society and their own populations at the same time. and as far as i understand, it's mostly a positive story. but you'll still hear these one, apple, you know, spoiling the rest of the barrel type of stories where things do or things are said to be in crisis. and i just don't believe that to be the case. how the city is now been over populated after opening themselves to all the refugees. and does this decrease the quality of life for the original inhabitants? the population has grown and then and there i would refer to my own society. in

other words, virginia uh, from fredericksburg, virginia, up to northern virginia. the population is growing. and some of that population is refugee population. but i don't think the refugee population is the primary driver of the population group was primarily driving it is urban, ization and, and the search for corporate jobs and the successful search for corporate jobs like amazon, h, q 2 up in northern virginia. and, and, and in effect the, the, the state government is trying to attract all of this economic activity, which they've successfully done. and that is driving population growth. so at least in, in my surroundings, in virginia, there is population growth, but i don't think it's the refugees. i think there may be 5 to 10 percent of the total that the 80, the 80 to 90 percent of the total is coming from other parts of the united states,

which aren't doing very well. and relatively speaking. now another point about the idea that they're causing population growth and making life worse for the host community, i would offer a calendar of vision. and that is that there are many examples up until now, where there are either rule or more often, urban environments where the neighborhood has in effect, been a disaster for the last 40 years and refugees come in and they make that neighborhood thrive. that is happening far more frequently. then having a situations where the refugees are causing the population to boom, which is pushing out who's community and individuals. it's much more frequently the case that under invested left behind communities in places like newark new jersey or, or, you know, detroit,

michigan or just pick any city that doesn't sound like it's doing very well. certain neighborhoods in those cities are thriving now because of refugee populations are for us and the bill i'll to create a will be joining us right after the break. while many countries have received a large number of refugees a year after year, many countries have received almost none. so what are these countries doing to prevent refugees from coming into their country? well, have more after the break the route and i'd love to try to, i'm to see skit 3 feet and they will see skid out of the go with the that you sent those last i was i'm of you on is zacko going that good option and you know, he's a put up and you're not issue out for the state taxation. the full such as i should that i, she's the instructional give about john long would love to go. just talk

a little you should see those sheets of those a go. there's a little c, a years ago, sales custom coast like friends here was the months me, i'm a photo skid. she was a but all, you know and about the show on circuit. most a go to cook waterfront, things go out. and so usually it comes to from getting that to, to go to your open when you get to mind for sure. what's the pipe crochase that the school can. yeah. and the console. you put the device, you're saves the same wrong. just don't you have to safe house to come and engagement because the trails when so many find themselves will support we choose to look so common ground, the

welcome back to the cost of everything. while many countries have received a large number of refugees year after year, many countries have received almost none and are doing everything they can to prevent refugees from coming into their country. japan accepts the least number of refugees for a major country and economy as they say, and must look after its own before allowing refugees. japan also wants to preserve their age and culture and fear that adding refugees or migrants to their population will affect their culture. other countries who have strict policies on refugees include hungry, south korea, saudi arabia, and guitar, other countries, lifestyle, your ravia are similar being rich and oil. is that a similar level to japan? in western europe, portugal has received the fewest refugees at point 03 percent. these countries have

been quite peaceful in recent years compared to the route sweden, belgium, jeremy l u k are taking and they're now experiencing higher rates of crime in italy . authorities have increasingly refused to allow boats with asylum seekers to dock in their ports. however, once the conflict broke out in your chain, many european countries that have been the most negative about receiving refugees from outside europe such as poland congress. in slovakia, they actually became the largest recipient for a written ukraine. refugees, the vast majority has led to poland, which now houses almost 1200000 refugees. more than 6000000 have been displaced by the conflict in ukraine. estimates are that hosting an integrating ukraine. refugees could cost host nations an estimated $30000000.00 in just the 1st year alone. the people have also pointed out that ukraine refugees have generally been well received. which contrast it with the way refugees from other parts of the

world are treated. and this should not be ignored as a different treatment received by refugees from ukraine compared to those come from countries outside of europe is in some extent rooted in seen a phobia, an opposition to muslim immigration. this is particularly noticeable in poland, where fences were be erected on the border with feller roost pushing asylum seekers from the middle east and africa back while ukrainians are being welcomed with open arms. and 4 more, let's bring in again the bill out to create a professor of middle east history at the university of mary washington. so professor, obviously it is a humanitarian thing to do and the right thing to do. but are there any benefits to accepting mass refugees or are the countries who accept refugees now just struggling with the extra burden on society? i think that's absolutely accurate. um,

there was all of this happening in high and when the syrian refugees originally came in 2015. and again, that was a very large movement. it was over a 1000000. but now these years later, they're mostly doing very well. and they were not treated well by many players, including other east european states that tried to prevent their trends, their transportation over their territory when they were just trying to get to germany. and a more recent example that plays into the ukrainian crisis directly is the example that happened like 2 or 3 months before the launch of the, the russia, ukraine war. and that was a number of refugees were in bella, who's trying to get to poland. and what i think was november december of 2021. it was a month or 2 before the invasion. and in that case, it was only a matter of, of, of a few dozen, or maybe a few 100 refugees who are largely iraq, the kurds,

from what i remember and the polls, the polish government, was doing everything it could to keep them away from poland because once they reached poland, they could claim asylum. so they were, they didn't use live ammunition to the polls credit. they used water, cannon, beatings, push backs from the wall from the fence, and they pushed them back in the bellows. and eventually those refugees who were trying to make it to the you were pushed back into balance, bruce, and i'm not sure what happened to them now, not, not 6 weeks after that. or maybe a couple of months after that, russia launched the invasion of ukraine, and it was all open arms. everybody was doing anything they could for the ukrainian refugees all over the world. now i don't have anything against ukrainian refugees. i think they deserve a fair shake and a chance to live safely and securely. but i would argue that so do syrians,

and so do you, rocky curds and so do lebanese. and so do ask ends. it's not just something that is, is there for bella, luce, sorry, ukrainian refugees. it's something that should be there for any refugee. there are many people criticizing their country that have been more open to ukraine. refugees and syrian refugees because they are white. what do you make of this situation? another, another historical point, if i may be historical point and this is kind of a footnote the history, it's not something that's extremely famous. but in world war 2, there were several 1000 polish refugees who took refuge any run. the story is always intrigued to me because i don't know how they got from point a to point b, or really how many of it was. but it was, it was a sizable number, and they were welcomed with open arms as far as the story goes, any ron?

and then after the war they returned to poland. again, the details escaped me and it's a, it's a fascinating story. but it can show that in, in the reverse, at least in that one occasion, they were provided refuge refuge. do you think these refugees will ever return to their home country, or do they look like a permanent migration, as well and not known? i would, i would point to the vietnamese in the united states. so in 1975, there was this title wave of vietnamese refugees fleeing south east asia. so they weren't just feeding amazing, advertise cambodians, lotions, etc. and this, this tidal wave of southeast asians ended up in the us, um, primarily in california, but not only and i grew up in new orleans. and a lot of those vietnamese ended up in southern louisiana. which in a way was logical because they're going from a catholic society to

a catholic society. and a lot of them were south vietnamese who were catholic and they were going from a fishing society to a fishing society. and back in the 1970s. again, i was a child back then, but i distinctly remember that there were like fist fights between cajun fishermen in vietnamese fishermen. and i distinctly remember that the v in the me is held all the low wage jobs in the supermarkets and gas stations in the mid seventies. now you fast forward 50 years later. and the representative from new orleans east, which is where most of the vietnamese live, is a vietnamese americans. and they've added things to new orleans culture. that's very positive. for example. i don't know if anyone in the, in the, in the audience is familiar with king cakes. but it's a big thing in new orleans around marnie garad, i have a king cake, which is a type of pastry with a baby in the middle. well, when i was growing up, the king kicks were in edible. there was this company called mackenzie's that would

make it and sprinkle some powdered sugar on top. it was terrible, always stale. just awful. well the v and the means of reinvented the king cake and in new orleans. now the best king kick in the entire city comes out of a v as in the means bakery and new orleans eats. and that community is variety and there reinventing even nor one's culture. and after katrina, that community was devastated by katrina, i mean totally leveled. and they were back within a year because they helped each other get through that if the destruction, financially they helped each other and they're still striving that as an example of what can happen on a positive level with even a refugee population. just wait, continue to have your education, let them work, an honest job. 50 years later, everything's much, much better. thank you so much, professor for your all your time today. there are very few winters when it comes to

global catastrophes that involves so many displaced people. while the refugees are the biggest losers who have lost everything, their homes, their way of life, their country, the neighboring countries, are also feeling the effects as well. having to receive millions of refugees. many people feel over whelmed by the numbers and see people moving across the borders. but the people are not the problem here. rather, the causes that drive families and individuals to cross borders is the real problem . whether that be war persecution, human rights violations, or any other crisis. hosting refugees is just a short sighted solution and unrealistic, that is unsustainable in the long run. i'm christy, i thanks for watching and we'll see you right back here next time on the cost of everything the,

the russian states never as tight as one of the most sense community. best of all sense enough to progress be the one else calls. question about this, even though we will then in the european union, the kremlin mission, the state on the russians cruising and split the ortiz full neck, even our video agency, roughly all the band on youtube tv services. for what question did you say? even twist, which is the

watching is why isn't why in this control? don't forget about plenty of the store in this this, you should have been a short order for now. i'm not going to say last week when i scan, when i knew what the subject or desktop session on the font is shiny or just is fun, you bon, is going you sit on. what's the, the, the, the, the look forward to talking to you all. that technology should work for people. a robot must

obey the orders given by human beings, except we have such orders at conflict with the 1st law show your mind, anticipation. we should be very careful about our personal intelligence at the point, obviously is to race a trust rather than see it. the job with artificial intelligence we have summoning the theme and the robot most protects his phone. existence was on the 1935 passes. italy, led by dictator benito mussolini decided to expand its colonial empire in africa

and take over the opium. by that time, ethiopia was the only fully independent states on the continent. back in 1896, its inhabitants were able to defeat the italian colonists and defend their independence. since then. rome craved for revenge for the humiliating defeat. in the morning of october 3, 1935. without any announcement, the foxes attacked ethiopia and bombarded it most severely. d, d, o. b, an armed forces followed courageously. but the route cavity of via tell you and knew no bounds. they use not only massive bombing attacks on civilians, but also chemical weapons. toxic gas is this james the course of the war. as a result of the occupation of ethiopia by the fascist 760000 people were killed. the capture of the african state was committed with europe's tacit approval.

britain and france recognize the annexation, giving the green light to a further fastest expansion in the world. 10 baby and the way for the outbreak of world war 2. the russia claims that new crane deliberately left a most voted in the into the didn't put river adjusted for an attack on a political timeframe. it is to blame for that is off the emails between switzer i'm the f b. i show a problem with the clean units to, to services, to blow up approval from the accounts on the social media platform and the united states, a special climate and what the dates that the finalize will be out of sustainable in less than 30 years. due to ever increasing.
