Should we be generous to refugees?

The European refugee problem is usually called "Mediterranean refugee problem" by Europeans, which is a long-standing problem. For a long time, the left wing in Europe is powerful and generally sympathizes with and accepts refugees. It is a "paradise" that refugees in poverty-stricken areas around the Mediterranean or even beyond are eager to go to. Due to historical, realistic and cultural reasons, some "welfare countries" have become the most ideal destinations for these refugees and illegal immigrants because of their superior welfare conditions.

The so-called "refugees" and "illegal immigrants" are often the same kind of people. They smuggled into the EU through various channels of land, sea and air, or smuggled by themselves, or "snakeheads", or smuggled by themselves, or smuggled in groups with their children. If they are not found or stopped, they are illegal immigrants. Otherwise, they often seek refugee asylum for various reasons, thus becoming "Mediterranean refugees". Almost all people apply for asylum as political refugees, but a considerable number of them should actually be counted as economic refugees.

The side effects of the refugee problem are rapidly emerging. Eastern European countries with initial reservations continue to stick to their tough stance. Some originally "generous" countries have also begun to review their policies. For example, since 2000, Denmark has been famous for its generous reception of refugees. It announced on 20 15 65438+ 10/0/0 that it would confiscate an additional 10000 kronor (the wealth of asylum seekers) from 26 countries for the resettlement of refugees. It is worth noting that it is not the far-right Danish People's Party, but Stoj Berg, a cabinet member nicknamed "Bullfighting".

Due to the high anti-refugee sentiment of the people and the sharp rise in the support rate of the far right, mainstream political parties are forced to continue their generous traditional refugee policy without risking losing their votes. It is generally believed that the "refugee problem" is one of the key factors leading to Britain's withdrawal from the EU referendum through Britain. This problem has also led to worrying phenomena in many countries.
