Those are usually people from Pakistan and Bangladesh, who pretend to be Indians when they get caught. It's easy for them to fake it since the language and appearance is very similar and they throw away their passports. Indians almost always immigrate legally, and for the defined purpose of working and studying. They absolutely do not claim asylum first thing after reaching Europe, nor do they qualify for Asylum since our country isn't in war.@@bruhsusaltamash8141
Finland did a study on Sexual offences by nationality per 10,000. Afghanistan was 138/10K and Native Finnish was 3.33/10k. That's a 4000% increase between the 2 groups.
The statistic is alarming but it's important to ask some more questions: How was this study carried out? What was determined to be a SO? How does this compare to other migrant groups? How does it compare to globally? How long were these immigrants in the country? Does it increase/decrease/stay the same with years in the country? How does it compare to people of this group in other countries? Theres many important questions to ask before jumping the gun and demonising a group.
Sounds about right, just look at Sweden and their Immigration problems from the Middle East. As a Pole that's one of the reason why we are scared to take them to our country.

They are used mostly as low wage workers for tax evasion at best. They have become extremely taxing on the economy with free health care and medicine benefits.. not to mention they mostly have no intention to learn turkish and integrate.

in Croatia we had around 400.000 people leave to the rest of EU, and then we got around 300.000 immigrant workes from Nepal, Philippines and other Asian nations. So, would be interesting to see these numbers compared to country population. In Croatia we have around 4 milion people

I agree that it's polarised, but it gets too much attention non stop in the media. Every single problem in society is blamed on immigration by far right politicians and activists. It's quite exhausting to talk about, since no one listens to the scientists or experts who actually understand it
@wile123456 and often the other side of the coin is to deny or downplay legitimate issues or potential negatives of immigration. When people are essentially telling you not to believe your own eyes, it's easier to take advantage of these issues.
what do you mean everyone constantly tralks about the positives and you arent even allowed to MENTION the negatives. it IS the actual problem to many symptoms that people complain about, the elephant in the room@@wile123456
@@chickenfishhybrid44The fact is, every expert agrees that the benefits of immigration outweigh the negatives. If we are to maintain our standard of living in the face of a falling birth rate, we need to let people in to replenish the workforce until automation can take over most jobs.
Under the Dublin III agreement, every migrant has to register in the first EU country they arrive at. This however, is rarely the case. A small minority of migrants from the MENAPT region want to stay in Greece or Italy, where they arrive. Most of them want to travel further to middle or north European countries like Germany, France or Sweden.

lmao as if europeans werent the first illegal migrants to almost evry continent and literally wiping out native populations in america with their diseases
So, to summarize, Eastern Europeans go to work in Central Europe, and Africans/Arabs go to Western Europe for social benefits. But for some reason, this statement is considered almost fascist.
people on family reunification permits dont get goverment benefits and most migrant work permits dont permit collecting social benefits its usually asylum seekers that might get a social benefit and that is not someothing a person can live on which is good to encourage work, lol bulgarians were sucking Germany dry with all their welfare fraud they committed it was so bad germany had to change its benefits rules for eu citizens
Because in "central" europe, there is no social benefits. If you dont work, you aint going to have even enough for food. 😂 For eg. Germany pays 700-900€ to refugee. Poland gives 170€ 😂 170€ is enough for 4 weeks of cheapest food products and nothing more.
@@kerstas10 and that's right way. Migrants have to prove that they are useful for host countries, otherwise there is no point in letting them stay in Europe
Because they have a purpose. People which don't start doing stupid things. A large chunk of those are refugees which aren't allowed to work at the moment (reason being to protect European workers from the illegal practice of wage dumping). What many forget is that the EU has a easy law which would allow them to categorize some refugee groups under a special status which would allow them to work. The law was passed around 2015 in the context of larger than usual Syrian/Iraqi asylum seeking (thanks to the war on terror) but was never used up to 2022 for Ukrainians (not Syrians and Iraqi though)
Unless you look into it and find out most of these people are completely unemployable. They were barely employable in their former countries and that's despite a much lower standards of what work is. @@user6343
Honestly, I do not think that's surprising at all. I'm Turkish and most of the folks who leave the country nowadays are well educated reasonable people who happen to be upset at how things are run. That stereotype probably originates from past unskilled workers, people who happened to leave their countries in the 60s when nationalism was still a very strong concept mostly were those who couldn't fetch opportunity for obvious reasons. Germans got their fair share of our nitwits in the past 😀
Thats true. Here in England, the two ethnicitie with the lowest crime rates are chinese and Indian respectively. They also happen to be the highest earning ethnicity. As opposed to... Africans
In the end, the baseline is : Do you consider your country to be just an administrative institution ? If yes, then of course you wouldn't see any problem with migration, as it is just an administrative thing. If no, if your country is also your nation, a group of people bound by common culture and core values, then you should at least be against mass migration.
No, they painted a false dichotomy in which the second option is emotionally charged with an appeal to tradition. Furthermore, its almost as if they didn't watch the video that they commented on, which described how many countries are facing demographic collapse and that immigration may be necessary to prevent the economic collapse that will ensue. What's clear is that when there is zero immigration and a below 2.1 fertility rate, economic decline is inevitable. Therefore countries must push for natalist policies to increase the fertility rate alongside attracting immigrants, all without angering racists and nationalists who oppose immigration for "culture" reasons and extreme feminist who think women are being treated like baby machines. It's going to be extremely hard for countries to push past these two groups and to solve the underlying issues causing low fertility, but I pray that they succeed or else we are truly fucked. @@HedgehogZone
Please please make another video on this topic or a longer one. I want to know more about it, and it has been a topic i've only seen talked about without nuance here in Portugal and just with polarization all around, especially during the election time.
The data can sometimes be misleading. When you look at Germany for example the refugees from Ukraine are of course listed as refugees and included into the 48% of the statistics. But at the same time they are allowed to work (have simultaneously a work permit) and all the other refugees get a work permit after between three to nine months. So technically Poland just puts them into an other categorie than Germany does but their reason for migration is the same.
Nope you are wrong. I as ukranian need to get the German working Visa. I dont have schngen yes, but I still need to have all that working permit cancer. If only your word were right and I can get german wroking visa the way you have explained.

In Poland we also have a programm which lets people with Polish ansectry come to the country on other terms and since we have quite complecated history with the shape of our east borders, many Bielarusians and Ukrainians fall into the category od people who can apply for it. I wonder how this affects the statistics...

We have a lot of interesting data about migration from a lot of EU countries. I mostly know about the data from Germany, the Netherlands and Denmark. The result is clear across all 3 countries of which I have read the statistics: North African migrants are the most criminal migrants by far, followed by Sub-Saharan Africans and people from the Middle East. Sub-Saharan Africans, especially Somalis, are the least economically productive, most welfare-dependent migrants of all. Now about the positives, which we sadly don't get many migrants from: East Asians (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) are less criminal than the average citizen of the country they migrate to, they are more economically productive and often even a net contributer to public finances. Other highly productive and law-abiding migrants are EU-migrants that move from one EU country to another and immigrants from North America, Australia and New Zealand. Upper class, most often White, South Africans also do incredibly well in EU countries. People from South America are not so clear, some are good, some are bad. The more close to Europeans they are culturally and ethnically, the better they integrate in Europe. Which should be very obvious. Also, don't trust what someone says on the internet, just look it up yourself. Many countries publish this data very openly and with a bit of research you will be able to find it. Make sure to look at the official government data, not at some 3rd party media which are often biased towards the left or towards the right.
Integration…for someone who lives in/near EU its ofc easier to integrate. But it‘s also very interesting what the integration campaigns of different countries look like. I am from a small city of north Germany. Basically what they did to a lot of immigrants is, that they put them all into one area of the city, instead of giving them opportunities of accomendation to integrate. By asking especially far right politicians about how their integration campaign looks-you get no useful answer. Thought this is also an interesting factor!
@@meryemgundogmus2625 Surely bad integration policies and lack of German language courses have contributed to the bad integration of many migrants in Germany. But one has to ask: If that is the issue, why do the East Asians not have it? Why are East Asians doing incredibly well, even tho they live in the same system as African migrants and both groups do not have proper access to integration courses or language learning courses. My assumption is: You can make it in Europe if you try hard, and many people do that, even Africans or people from the Middle East. But while most East Asians work incredibly hard to integrate and therefore succeed in Europe, most people from Africa and the Middle East don't seem to do that.
@@meryemgundogmus2625Why don't we give them an appartment near the Alster in Hamburg right ? That would definitely help them to integrate better. I also want one, cna I get one, for integration.

I really wonder why would Germany stop me from going for tourism yet they accept those who want to come and stay and maybe spread their own culture instead of integrating! It’s too sad and it’s so unfair!
I guess different governmental representatives (not the bureacratic machines like Eurostat in the background) are heavily influenced by their ideology and thus frame numbers to be preferable for them.
The Family category for migration isn’t very helpful. All of those people are coming as the result of someone in another category, whether past or present. A worker and their family. A refugee and their family. A student and their family. Etc. You dismiss the illegal category as just a fraction of the legal migrants. But even with official statistics it was 60%+ and as you said those numbers are very likely undercounting. In other words, illegal migration is probably about on par with legal.
Well if a person from China is migrating as a highly skilled worker, he's obviouslty going to have to brign his spouse and kids. They pay taxes. When merit based migrants come in. They make several times more than the national average wages, which means the wealth per capita of the country as well as the talent increases. Saying as a half Japanese half white individual myself.
Turkey and Ukraine make significant minorities but idk of Indians, most south Asians (Bangladeshi, Pakistani and srilankans) are coined under the term 'Indian'.

I got a Residency Permit for Spain in 2022 as a (retired law enforcement) citizen born in the USA. Lived there almost 5 months. It was for dating purposes (met a woman in Barcelona who told me what "P.I.G.S." meant 🤣). It was the worst experience putting in all the paperwork in triplicate, getting 'official' translations, scrutiny of my lifelong financial docs/funds, etc. When I got to Spain I found out I even couldn't open a bank account without EXTEME hassle and unreasonable fees even with a US credit score of 800 (for reference) so I used transfer services like Charles Schwab/TransferWise. The food was great, the views amazing, and the Catalonia people were awesome but Spain as a whole with the rules were unbearable. To me, it 'looked'like a democracy but didn't act like one, with a 'royal' family and all. The USA is frought with perils of ALL kinds, but ultimately I really can do exactly what I want here without a real heavy hand, but sometimes you have to leave your country in order to really see it. Now all these other places people love to run to, I'll just visit for a month and do it that way.
You don't have to go through all of that in the US because you are a citizen. Do you think that the migration system is easy for legal immigrants in the US? Do you know that any legal foreign migrant cannot leave the US if they are, after some years of work permits, applying to a permanent residency (green card)? I have heard horrible stories of people not being able to visit their sick relatives for years because the process can take 5 years. Comparing your citizens experience in your own country with your experience as an immigrant in a foreign one is nonsense.
@@proy1990 said: " I have heard horrible stories.." The migration system in the US is far easier, because of our borders folks can walk over from Canada or Mexico. Once here, it's easy to exist in the underbelly, work and make far more than even in European countries because our laws permit it. Even when caught, there isn't a deportation if you then claim asylum or religious persecution from Islam. You 'heard stories' but anecdotes that aren't even yours aren't the norm. Everyone "knows a guy" or "heard a story". My inlaws are from the Philippines. We sponsored them here and they stayed for 4.5 years. They could have went back any time to visit but chose to stay here and work. They just couldn't stay out of the country for a set amount of time; not that they 'couldn't leave' 🤣 They only went back because they stupidly wanted to get their PI government pension (which was peanuts) instead of staying the last 6 months to make them permanent residents. The USA is WIDE open. You have no clue.
@@ADadSupreme my knowledge from around 3 friends is as anecdotal as your single experience in Spain. A friend of mine, from Italy actually, missed so many important family things because if she left the US, her green card process of already 2 years would have stopped. Of course, she was not obliged to stay, but the bureaucratic process is so slow and flawed for these legal processes that put people in awful situations. Another friend went there with his wife (she got sponsored by employer) with a family visa. Even though he was already there, he couldn't work for many months because the work visa is a separate and long process. FYI: in Spain it is the same, if you get there from Africa you can get to work staying illegal, but here I'm talking about legal immigration and the issues you (or any national of any country) have no idea because you are a citizen.. "I really can do exactly what I want without a really heave hand" yes, because you are a national... If you were Spanish you would be able to open as many accounts as you want..

What baffles me is why numerous migrants who enter Europe illegally, particularly young men, seem resistant to embracing integration, diversity, and LGBTQ culture. This resistance appears to be a significant factor contributing to various challenges.
In Romania started to come a lot of immigrants from Asia (Nepal, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Vietnam) but no problems so far because not even one of them is a illegal immigrant, Poland does the same thing, and is one of the safest countries in the world.
"embracing" is probably best replaced with "acceptance". Not even everyday people in EU countries will embrace LGBTQ culture or diversity, they accept it. Nor do I think anyone should feel like they need to embrace those, it's perfectly fine to have your own cultures and not want to deal with the cultures of others.

You kept immigration statistics from Greece, Cyprus and Malta out for a reason? A focus on Portugal, Spain and Italy would be more useful than on Ukraine and Russia.
because most migrants dont tend to stay there long term, he already mentioned in the video that places like greece, cyprus, malta are losing more immigrants than are coming in, he focused on places where immigrants are staying long term
Great video and fantastic data. I wish you explored that last part (what kind of visa each migrant nationality is most likely to have) a bit further, as in, other regions besides the ones you mentioned. Nevertheless, really well done. I wish the discussion here in Germany took this approach and added some much needed rationality.
Would be interesting to see the employment data correlated to this. Like what sectors people are working, what % of family reunification person are working as well.
As a Namibian I've always found it interesting how black Africans are portrayed as the face of the European replacement theory when we only barely surpass north africa in numbers and are behind the middle east and south Asia.
The reason is because you are mostly watching media from the Anglosphere. In America and Britain the black population is.much larger. While in Germany it is focused on Arabs.
@@ukj5850no true the black population in Britain is about 3.4% of the population while Indian and Eastern European are much higher , Indian are over 12%of the England population yet when people say immigrants they immediately think that black Africans are highest immigrant which it is not even close
great replacement theory is from a French old racist, who is living in 1911. No one wants to replace Europeans, it's just due to wars and conflicts. Migration is a natural thing and all organisms do it to survive. Don't listen to extreme right concpiracies, they are delusional.
Immigration becomes a problem when it is too big. There are simply too many immigrants per native population. For this reason you see the rise of anti-immigrant parties. No one denies that some immigration is good - and it is. It is when it is too large that the immigrant groups have a significant number that this becomes a problem. Solving the birth rate is a separate issue, and should not be conflated with immigration, nor should immigration be thought of as a solution to low birth rates.
Just out of interest what would be a better alternative to increase birth rates? I would say making things like kindergarten and schools better/more affordable could help many families but especially single parents.
@@user6343 Unfortunately there is no alternative to increasing birth rates - either you increase birth rates or you don't - that's a reality we have to accept. Replacing the native population with foreigners doesn't solve the low birth rate issue - it still persists. You are correct that Kindergarten and schools could be more affordable, but generally families are under a lot of pressure both in time and money. One parent used to be enough to support the whole family (whether it's the mother or the father who work) the kids are looked after by a stay at home parent. It's not possible now - costs are too high. I think making energy cheaper will have a knock on effect, as will housing - at the moment houses are simply too expensive. If you take immigrants out of the equation, houses will still be too high - this is because not enough are built, but more so that Hedge Funds, Investors and Corporations are purchasing residential real estate. Since these parties have access to more funds they easily outbid families for homes or force them to raise their initial offers. That's for families, but it is worth noting that the marriage rate has also declined to all time lows - due to Divorce laws and this is an unintended consequence of the #MeToo movement. General attitudes have changed, Women tend to wait longer to get married but Men generally don't want older women and after 30 it gets increasingly difficult to give birth - women are under more pressure on that front. There's a lot more - but too much to fit in a RU-vid comment. Great question though.

Spain 🇪🇸 has always been a tolerant and open country with people who come from other countries, since for many years we were immigrants in France 🇫🇷 , Germany 🇩🇪 or Switzerland 🇨🇭 and we contributed to the progress of these countries. Now we have a large Hispanic American community (Colombia 🇨🇴, Venezuela 🇻🇪, Cuba 🇨🇺, Ecuador 🇪🇨, Argentina 🇦🇷...) due to our historical and cultural ties; as well as from North Africa, especially Morocco 🇲🇦 due to its geographical proximity and even from Ukraine 🇺🇦. I believe that legal and controlled immigration and people who want to come to Spain to work and contribute to the progress of the country will always be welcome.
That's a similar case with a lot of western countries though. The issue is the economic issues that the global South South has and yes people there try to change situations there, but...as per usual the elites in the global South are super corrupt.
Well you know we were the same in ireland. I don't have a problem with people coming to Ireland but within reason and in a balanced and positive way. We should have tough and high standards and make sure that people who come here have jobs supplied and are checked properly(including refugees and political migrants). We should be welcoming but not foolish and not to the detriment of our country.
There are towns in Ireland where there are more foreigners than native people, many of them don't speak English and many of them aren't interested in integration with their new neighbours.
Its mainly because women work and have no time for having childs or if they have then only one or two. The conservative status of the women staying at home and the men working should be restored otherwise even if having children is subsidised people just not have the time for children. I personally do all I can to prevent the demographic collapse ( I have 4 children ) The ultimate goal should be the fertility rate of 2,1 because thats the replacement rate and the european union no longer needs migrants for sustaining the economy.
@dreamingof777....Will never happen lol. You can not force people to have more childeren if they don't want to and the socio-economic climate is not conducisve.

The old age in Europe increasing and the childbirth rate is decreasing. European women are also not virtle as before due worsen health and genetics.
As a French myself, this is how I see things : for the immigrants from north-Africa, it's an "old" immigration, their families and them have been coming to Europe for 60 or 50 years, so it's normal they are more present on the "family reunification" part of the stats. For Afghans, Syrians and Ukrainians, its a "new" immigration, that started in the last 10 years, as consequences of conflits. Between the two, you have the African immigrants, who are a bit of both, some of them having been coming to Europe for decades (mostly located on the west part of the continent), and others that are coming in more recent waves (mostly from the east of Africa).
Turkey is not a country in the Middle East. Some of its territory belongs to the Middle East, just as some of it belongs to the Balkans and the Caucasus. If you include Turkey in the Middle East just for a piece of land, then you need to include it in the Balkans and the Caucasus as well. If you are confused, you can call the geography where Turkey is located Anatolia because it is a country that is a mixture of many civilizations and geography. If Türkiye does not belong to the Balkans, it does not belong to the Middle East either. If it belongs to the Middle East, it also belongs to the Balkans and the Caucasus. There is no logic in including a predominantly "Muslim" country in the MENA region, because many countries in the Asian region also belong to the Turkish nation and believe in Islam, but they are included in Asia. Isn't this ridiculous? Turks are not Arabs! Stop showing it in the middle east! Also, stop pretending that only Muslims live in Turkey. There are Christians, Deists, Atheists, Tengrists and Jews all living together here. Save yourself from this Western illusion.
Turkey is 99% Muslim: www.state.gov/reports/2022-report-on-international-religious-freedom/turkey/#:~:text=Section%20I.-,Religious%20Demography,to%20the%20government%2C%20includes%20Alevis.
@@IntoEurope How did they reach this conclusion? Nobody asks people about their religion. In the past, everyone was automatically written as Muslim in the religion section, which the link you sent does not prove anything and this is not true. Objectively, people have never been asked to state their religion. The last census was held 20 years ago and only there people were asked about their religion. If the same application were made now, it would be seen that all of these things are wrong. 99% of Turkey is not Muslim. This is false information and there is no objective source that can verify this information. So the information you sent is just nonsense and fabrication. The objectivity of this can only be seen in applications such as "e-edevlet " ; You can contact them whenever they are asked to state their religion. Please do not spread false information.
@@IntoEurope A sizeable chunk of ME countries such as Egypt, Jordan, Iran and Lebanon are Christians. Kosovo, Albania, Bosnia, Chechnya, Dagestan all have Muslim majority and located 100% in Europe, the country with the biggest Muslim population, Indonesia, is not located in Middle East and is surrounded by other non-ME Muslim majority countries such as Malaysia and Brunei. You also have Singapore, another non-ME country with almost 1/3 of population as Muslim with a higher GDP per capita than every EU member, universities ranking higher than every EU located university and a higher average IQ than every EU country. That inference was rather naïve.
@@IntoEurope Türkiye is Uniter Nationalist, Secular country which is exactly locate at the border of West Asia and East Europe as a bridge. Middle East is a Racist politicial term used to define Arab countries. Middle East doesnt even exist. Europe is Northwest Asia aswell. Not a continent itself. A peninsula. Türks are not Islamist and the majority is not Muslim. Erdo's Political İslamism is created by Global trade lobby and puppeted by Nato/Usa. Elections were allways fixed.
Not enough data I want more focus on the countries where the people are moving to Europe from I predict in the distant future that their Will be countries with a birth rate below replacement and high immigration rates to Europe leading the country to become somewhat empty in a relatively small amount of time
