On the
Washington Post, data
was published detailing where
refugees live. The majority of refugees
live in Turkey and Pakistan, yet China and Turkey have the largest population. It is said that most of the refugees are Lebanese and Turkish, and that the size of the American population
vs the amount of refugees we have (273,000) is less than 5% and one of the
least refugee populated areas. President Trump is trying to vacate most all of our refugees from the country, with little humility or help to offer, however in the larger scheme of things, we don't really have that many refugees as compared to other countries. Pakistan and Turkey have over one and two million refugees, and a large population to begin with. This raises the question of whether we, the United States, should really be kicking out innocent refugees, or if we should be welcoming more in. Trump has said that those without American backgrounds are wrongfully in the United States, however, this has caused much debate and controversy. Hopefully the conflict will be resolved if this information gets to him, but the chances are slim.
