Tahir In The Wilson Center: Shaken to The Core: The Plight of Syrian Refugees After February’s Earthquake
Turkey, a nation already grappling with economic decline and strained social relations, was hit by a devastating earthquake in February. The quake didn't just shake the physical infrastructure but also exposed the nation's existing social and economic fissures, particularly affecting the Syrian refugee population. Now, these refugees are trapped in an existential crisis - unable to return home, unable to relocate, and increasingly unwelcome in their host country. A feature by Muhammad Tahir, Corus International Sr. Manager for Media Relations, delves into the exacerbated plight of Syrian refugees in the aftermath of the earthquake, their escalating struggles, and the political games intertwined with their fate.
