Return of the Syrians? Political discussions reach a new highlight!

The critical return of Syrian refugees in their homeland has become very important in the past few days in both Austria and Turkey. Dr. Manfred Haimbuchner, FPÖ regional party chairman, has a clear position: The "Rapid return of Syrians to your home country is the requirement of the hour". He is convinced that Syria urgently needs these refugees for reconstruction. In view of the political situation after the fall of the Assad regime, Haimbuchner emphasizes the need to initiate all asylum procedures for Syrian nationals in Austria for the time being. This is only the first step, because asylum is a temporary protection that ends when the reason for refugee is eliminated, continues Haimbuchner. Austria has already offered many Syrians security, now the country must also take the return to promote the "relief" of the Austrian social system, such as ots.at reported.

political pressure in Turkey

In Turkey, the topic of returning Syrian refugees is a central concern before the upcoming elections on May 14th. The presidential candidate Sinan Ogan, who runs for the ultra-nationalist ATA alliance, loudly proclaimed loudly: "We will send the Syrians back as quickly as possible." Ogan is one of the voices that not only create a mood against the refugees in his party, but in the majority of the political landscape. In a latest survey, over 88 percent of the Turks stated that they support Syrian refugees returned to their home country. This mood has changed; While the governing AKP initially protected the Syrians, acceptance among the population has dropped significantly through economic difficulties, which the opposition parties use to gain votes, such as qantara.de summarized.

In addition, under the leadership of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, the AKP plans to develop more precise strategies for a safe return, since the cuts in state -financed help could lead to further tightening of refugee policy. In a recent study, migration researchers describe the need for such measures and the complex challenges in front of which both the refugees and the receiving countries are facing. The dynamic political currents in Turkey could move the return of almost four million Syrians who already live in Turkey and prove to be problematic before a report.
