The Event Background of European Refugee Crisis

The source of the European refugee crisis is very complicated, with strong incentives from history, politics, society, military and economy.

Historically, the main source of the refugee tide in Europe is refugees from the Islamic world, and Central Asia and North Africa have always been the positions of the Islamic world. The conflict between Islamists has a long history, with Sunni-led Saudi Arabia and Shia-led Iran fighting for a long time in Central Asia. There are more or less shadows of Russia and the United States behind these two countries. The Middle East war launched by the United States and the chaos in Georgia and Syria under the influence of Russia directly led to chaos in this region for 20 years. However, the struggle between the two sides has been suppressed to a certain extent, and people still have the dawn of a peaceful settlement. Until the "Islamic State" broke away from the control of the international community and declared war on the world, and then the United States directly intervened in the local political situation and directly supported the Syrian reactionaries, while Russia strongly supported the Syrian government, the situation became more and more serious. Refugees in the Arab region began to flee in large numbers, far from the places affected by the war.

Politics: Shiites headed by Iran have always wanted to control Central Asia and become regional leaders. Sunnis are in tit-for-tat with Iran. With the support of the United States, Sunni organizations headed by Saudi Arabia have been able to grow and control most oil-producing areas in the Middle East. Russia is unwilling to hand over huge oil interests and start a political game with the United States. The confrontation between the two great powers has directly led to the small country becoming a pawn and it is difficult to take care of its citizens. In order to avoid the political environment that may change hands at any time, a large number of refugees began to seek asylum in politically stable countries.

Europe is close to the Middle East and North Africa and has strong political mutual trust. The exchanges between European countries and countries that signed the Schengen Agreement need no formalities and review, and the domestic political environment of each country is stable, which leads to a large number of refugees pouring into Europe to take refuge.

Social aspect: due to the turbulent social environment caused by the war, most countries where refugees live have economic and social problems and social order has been completely destroyed. Both riots and extremist organizations are spreading in various countries, and staying in the country is always in danger, not to mention social problems such as old-age security and education for future generations.

As we all know, social welfare in several European countries is very high, especially the Nordic countries, Denmark and Germany, so these countries have become the first choice for refugees. As long as refugees enter European territory through illegal smuggling and absconding, according to international agreements, European countries have no reason to send war refugees back to war-torn countries, which is equivalent to indirect murder. In addition, Europe itself is one of the promoters of the chaos in the Islamic world, so Europe, which bears corresponding responsibilities, has accepted more and more refugees.

Military aspect: The specific facts are as follows: In the Arab Spring Movement on 20 1 1, the Saudi-supported troops overthrew the Mubarak government in Egypt, which directly led to the sharp deterioration of diplomatic relations between Iran and Saudi Arabia. In the same year, there was civil strife in the Bahraini government, and Saudi Arabia assisted the Sunnis to suppress the Shiite rebellion on behalf of the Bahraini royal family. In the same year, the Syrian civil war broke out. The Arab Spring greatly expanded the sphere of influence of Sunnis, and Iran was not to be outdone and set off a new round of war. Europe began to accept refugees, calling them war migrants. 20 12 Syrian battlefield has become an important fulcrum for Iran and Saudi Arabia to wrestle. The Islamic State was formally established on 20 14. Saudi Arabia and the United States are ambiguous because they inherited the Al Qaeda and Iraqi regimes and stood on the opposite side of Iran at the beginning of their establishment. On June+10, 5438, the Pakistani Taliban declared their unconditional loyalty to the "Islamic State" and the war was further prolonged. The "Islamic State" has put most countries in the world on the hostile list. The refugee crisis in Europe has reached an unbearable level. By 20 15, more than100000 refugees will flood into Europe. On 20 15, the Houthi armed forces in Yemen supported by Iran and the government forces supported by Saudi Arabia also fell into civil war. Sunni led by Saudi Arabia quickly carried out air strikes in Yemen to assist Sunni armed forces in Yemen to fight Shiite armed forces. The relationship between Iran and Saudi Arabia has become worse, and the opposition between Shiites and Sunnis has intensified again. 20 16 1.2 Saudi Arabia sentenced Shiite clerics to death for terrorism and executed them. Immediately after the Saudi embassy in Tehran was attacked by Iranian demonstrators, Saudi Arabia announced the severance of diplomatic relations with Iran, and Iran announced a sacred retaliation against Saudi Arabia. At this point, the internal turmoil in the Islamic world has reached an unprecedented peak. In June 20 16, Europe accepted three times as many refugees as in June 20 15.

Economic aspect: the economic inducement should be the external factor of the sharp increase in the number of refugees in Europe. In fact, in the era of peace in Central Asia and North Africa, the economic situation of these places was not bad. Iraq has long been at the economic level of developed countries, and Libya and Egypt are also striking emerging economies. However, the sectarian struggle and the big country game led to the decline of this region, and the Arabs, a small country that could not be unified, had to flee to end their manipulated fate.

Europe has long been an economically developed country, and the overall economic data of the EU is much higher than that of China, the United States and Russia combined. Finding a job in Europe is the best choice for most refugees who are starving for themselves and their whole families. Therefore, some regions and countries where there is no war have also smuggled into Europe.

Event influence

Germany is by far the European country that accepts the largest number of refugees, with more than 200,000 refugees stranded in Germany and more than 600,000 refugees entering Germany. However, German and European partners are not fully prepared for the refugee crisis, and there is not enough housing and logistics supply. The shortage of infrastructure is also a huge problem for Europe to accept refugees. The cost of money, manpower and material resources consumed by refugees every day is equivalent to the consumption of a group army. Europe, whose economy is already depressed, has suffered a head-on blow, which is even more devastating. At the same time, because of the influx of refugees, a large number of European nationals' facilities and welfare were occupied, which caused strong protests from nationals of many countries, and anti-refugee conflicts broke out in Denmark and Sweden. Europe under the refugee crisis can be said to be both internal and external, and finding a solution to the refugee crisis is also one of the most important things in Europe at present.
