The difference between illegal immigrants and refugees

Illegal immigrants refer to "immigrants" who cross the border illegally by non-citizens. This noun usually means many social problems. Such as economy, social welfare, education, crime, public welfare, health insurance and human rights.

Refugees refer to all people who cannot be protected by their country of origin because of race, religion, nationality, membership of a certain society or different political views. Or stateless people who are now outside their original country of residence and are unable or unwilling to return to their original country of residence.

Geographically speaking, refugees are a special form of population migration. Due to natural disasters, war disasters, class oppression and ethnic oppression, religious and racial discrimination and changes in national boundaries, a large number of people were forced to leave their homes and live in exile, resulting in forced migration.

Refugees are a special group in the international community. They are a group unable or unwilling to return to their country of origin due to war, ethnic persecution, tribal conflicts, national territory change, political asylum, natural disasters and economic deterioration. They are characterized by group, helplessness, mobility, spontaneity and passivity.

Refugees are divided into economic refugees, war refugees, ethnic and religious refugees, political refugees, natural disaster refugees and so on.

It can be seen that people coming from Yalu River should be regarded as refugees and cannot be repatriated. People who came from China to deal with the Yalu River a few years ago were repatriated to a third country.
