UN Confirms That 71million People Are Displaced By War And Economic Turmoil by durableking: 2:44pm On Jun 19, 2019 |
UN confirms that 71million people are displaced by war and economic turmoil globally The U.N. refugee agency on Wednesday said that no fewer than estimated 71 million people have been displaced worldwide from war, persecution and other vices. According to the record, this is an increase of more than 2 million from last year and an overall total that will amount to the world’s 20th most populous country. The annual “Global Trends” report released by the U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees counts the number of the world’s refugees, asylum-seekers and internally displaced people at the end of 2018, in some cases following decades of living away from home. The figures, coming on the eve of World Refugee Day on Thursday, are bound to add fuel to a debate at the intersection of international law, human rights and domestic politics, especially the movement in some countries, including the U.S., against immigrants and refugees. Launching the report, the high commissioner, Filippo Grandi, had a message for U.S. President Donald Trump and other world leaders, calling it “damaging” to depict migrants and refugees as threats to jobs and security in host countries. Often, they are fleeing insecurity and danger themselves, he said. The report also puts a statistical skeleton onto often-poignant individual stories of people struggling to survive by crossing rivers, deserts, seas, fences and other barriers, natural and man-made, to escape government oppression, gang killings, sexual abuse, militia murders and other such violence at home. details on >>> https://www.yourtotalneeds.com/un-confirms-that-71million-people-are-displaced-by-war-and-economic-turmoil-globally/
