Humiliation of asylum seekers; Turkey and Greece are responsible
Afghan Voice Agency (AVA) - Today's View: Except for the humiliating rejection of nearly 100 refugees with naked bodies, which can be unprecedented in the history of immigration in the contemporary era and recorded as a deeply anti-human and anti-Islamic move, the news Many others have been published about the heinous, violent, disgusting and harmful mistreatment of refugees, especially Afghan refugees, by the Turkish security forces.
The UN refugee agency said it was "deeply saddened" by the discovery of around 100 naked men on the border between Greece and Turkey.
 
Greece blamed Turkey and called this country's "behavior" a "civilization shame".
 
Turkey has called the claim of its neighboring country "fake news" and accused this country of "cruelty".
 
The Greek police said that they found and rescued 92 naked men, some of whom had injuries on their bodies, near the northern border of this country with Turkey on Friday.
 
These people are mainly from Afghanistan and Syria.
 
A Greek official claimed that many of the migrants said that "three Turkish army vehicles took them to a border river between the two countries."
 
Notis Mitarachi; The Greek immigration minister also said that Turkey's treatment of migrants is a "civilizational shame."
 
A Turkish official, however, called these accusations "useless and ridiculous" and accused Greece of disrespecting the refugees for publishing the picture.
 
The reality behind the curtain in this disgusting event is still unknown; but one thing is certain and that is that both Turkey and Greece have a shameful and indefensible track record in the field of refugee rights.
 
As a Muslim country, Turkey has been the center of gathering and passage of hundreds of thousands of refugees from countries such as Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria in recent years. Irrespective of the fact that Turkey, as a NATO member country and an aggressor state, which either through direct aggression against neighboring countries and the region or through hidden and hidden support of proxy and terrorist groups, has a role in creating insecurity and crisis. Instability and as a result fueling the flood of millions of immigrants from the mentioned countries, from the point of view of human rights, it should be responsible before the international community and adjust its anti-immigration policies.
 
Except for the humiliating rejection of nearly 100 refugees with naked bodies, which can be unprecedented in the history of immigration in the contemporary era and be recorded as a deeply anti-human and anti-Islamic move, there are many other news stories about heinous and violent mistreatment and The disgusting and harmful behavior of Turkish security forces with refugees, especially Afghan refugees, has been published.
 
Based on some documents that have recently been reflected in a number of social networks and news media, the Turkish police are beating, torturing, and harassing Afghan refugees to the point of death, and some of these people have been returned to the country half alive. or through the land borders to Turkey's neighboring countries, they have been rejected.
 
This heinous and anti-human behavior is never in the dignity of a country that pretends to be Islam, calls itself a friend and helper of the Afghan nation. By sending a "friendship train" shows itself as a supporter of the needy inside the country.
 
On the other hand, Turkey, as a European NATO member country that is struggling to join the European Union, at least on the surface should adhere to the claims and slogans of the West about the human rights of refugees, and even if these refugees are Muslim and from Turkey's neighboring countries. Even if they are not, at least they are human and in terms of human rights claimed by the West, they are worthy of human honor and respect.
 
Another factor in the pathetic and humiliating situation of asylum seekers is the European country of Greece; A poor country but with a proud civilization, which in a sense is considered a symbol of western democracy and should be responsible and accountable for the human rights of refugees based on western standards.
 
There is no doubt that Greece is lagging behind economically; But in order to deal with asylum seekers, it has the support of Western organizations and powers, and it specifically receives money and assistance from the European Union in this regard; However, the situation of refugees in that country is very shocking and terrifying. The famous "Mora" camp and other refugee camps resemble a living hell where refugees are kept without any rights, like prisoners without freedom. Healthcare, food, amenities, education, etc. are not available in these camps, and corruption, insecurity, and criminality caused by poverty and helplessness have reached their peak.
 
In the meantime, the attitude of international organizations and countries claiming human rights towards the shocking situation of refugees in Turkey and Greece is also very shameful and disgusting; Because they don't want to question the responsibility and commitment of their allies in the field of the most obvious principles of human rights; But in countries like Iran, if the right of a refugee is lost, whether wanted or not, the political propaganda of the so-called human rights organizations and the western media will turn a deaf ear. This shows that, unfortunately, the issue of immigration is treated in a completely political and discriminatory way, and in this way, the refugees who are subjected to the most inhumane behavior on the deadly routes of Turkey and Greece, are cruelly victims of this standard. The duality of the West and Western human rights exist.
