The coastlines of the Mediterranean Sea went blurry with the waves.
The trembling water receded. Then perhaps, deciding to leave a memo, the waves dispatched a body, a little one. It was a silent baby in red shirt and blue pants. He lay dead. He had left his native land in haste and had undertaken a difficult journey to find a new home; somewhere in Europe.
The little boy Aylan Kurdi and his Syrian family had previously tried to seek asylum in Canada but were denied this. Not losing hope, they made an ardous attempt to find refuge in Europe. But after photographer Nilufer Demir published Aylan’s photograph, the Swedish Red Cross received donations- more than double of its previous week for asylum seekers.
Today, in 2019, the situation has changed a lot in Europe. The current year has seen the lowest immigrants in the decade. Policies taken by European governments are undeniably the reason behind this.
Why migrate?
Instability and insecurity of jobs, poverty, famines and overtly non-democratic and oppressive regimes have forced a large number of residents of Africa and from many Islamic countries of the West Asia to migrate to European countries. Immigrants include asylum seekers and economic immigrants. By 2050, the total population of Africa is expected to double itself to reach 2.5 billion and it is expected that a sizeable amount of Africans will try to find new homes in European shore in near to escape from the prevalent deprivation. The process has started. Europe, being unable to cope up with this huge refugee problem has decided to block illegal crossings through land and sea routes. It is indeed a delayed political reaction to Europe’s immigration crisis.
