Our decisions are limited and could cost many lives of the current 11 million refugees
fleeing Syria. Countries are separated and our time is in need of unity. Funding different
organizations, rebels, or governments with weapons, machinery, and financial support. Countries
are accepting different numbers of refugees causing others to balance an even heavier burden and
responsibility. Germany is present not to discuss as a major contributor to the United Nations or
as the largest financial supporter of the European Union, but as a concerned country for the
whole nation. Iran increased its assistance to Iraqi Shia terrorist groups with weapons, financial
support, and training to the Shia military in Bahrain as well as Hamas and other Palestinian
terrorist groups. Hundreds of millions of dollars in support of Hizballah in Lebanon and carried
out attacks along the Lebanese border with Israel. In the mid-1990s, Sudan served as a meeting
place and training base for terrorist groups, such as al-Qaeda and is still active today. The Syrian
regime provided weapons support Hizballah still allow Iran to rearm the organization. Syria is
important to terrorist network growth. The environment encouraging attacks in Yemen, Libya,
Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, France, Egypt, and the United States. Pakistan, China, Saudi Arabia,
claim to be international anti-terrorist and sides with the United States. China involves in
militarily relevant exports to regimes that have sponsored terrorism. Pakistan and Saudi Arabia
funds terrorist organizations and the extremist schools. This is only a tiny amount of actions
that countries have done to cause people to flee or die. Countries that are critical for solving this
national crisis are behaving irrationally and creating more of a mess. This crisis may get out of
hand if not joined together no matter what alliance or values you may share.

Our country is a place where six out of ten refugees chose to travel to. Seeking refugee
can benefit our economic industry. Gaps of unemployment is filled by half the million willing to
work. In the past year around 40,000 refugees found jobs in Germany. It does affect us
financially in the short-term because we need to providing German language classes, housing,
assistance, welfare, and government budgets are faced with 37 billion euros in additional cost.
The overflow of refugees are overwhelming authorities, refugee hotels, tent cities, and temporary
housing. There have been 120 cases filled of assaults of women from foreign nationals and 90%
of cases are unlikely to be reported. Though we are still hoping accepting refugees can benefit us
in the long term.
 We have donated funds to help refugees and their difficult situation. We are expected to
spend over 93.6 billion euros by the end of 2020 on refugees alone. We have also donated to
other countries to provide for the refugees needs. The United Nations send UN peacekeepers to
protect the camps in which refugees live in. Providing basic necessities as food, water, sanitation
and health care, much of this support is provided through the United Nations humanitarian action
machinery. Policies has been passed to secure the rights of urban refugees. To continue this
support, Germany has given funds directly toward the UN to help more in need.

In order to weaken the resources terrorist and governing countries who harm their own
citizens for control is to cut ties, trades, and alliances that fund their weapons and power they
weld. Other countries decisions are killing thousands by guns and even missiles. We as a nation
are separated into picking sides and befriending others. This is the first step into stopping the
core problem of terrorism. Many countries should help out and accept a reasonable amount of
refugees and to remember that you are always taking a risk no matter how many refugees you
accept. We offer sanctuary to those seeking asylum. Our acceptance rate in Germany is 55% and
refugees are not denied jobs.
