Immigrants are not the problem

Where is the world heading? Of course, it is not all doom and gloom, as civilisation continues to move forward. For every negative there is always a positive, however the negative always gets highlighted more than the positive aspect.

Immigration has become a big debate in the world, even in countries that were primarily established on the principles of immigration. These countries are now worried and think it is time to stop and build a wall. Most countries have started campaigns against immigration, and think it is the reason for the destabilisation of economies and societies.

Right or wrong, who will judge? Brexit was somewhere born out of this idea of stopping the funding towards the European Union and stopping the excessive incoming of immigrants. When the feeling of nationalism was high, people could not see the rational fallout from this divorce. Leaving a single market, which was economically beneficial and fruitful for all, is becoming a challenge.

A balanced approach is missing everywhere, and we need to look for solutions which have long- term positive effects.

Everyone who is against immigration needs to read the causes of the situation. If anyone is somehow being forced out of their country by circumstances or the inhuman and suffering conditions, we need to meditate on the larger issue of why it is happening.
