GRAND NATIONAL ASSEMBLY OF TÜRKİYE THE OMBUDSMAN INSTITUTION
playing out in our region. No matter how many walls countries build on their
borders, they cannot isolate themselves from this humanitarian plight.
The resistance shown against refugees entering Europe is very offensive and
upsetting to the name of humanity. The attitude of Europe that looks at the
immigration problem more on the basis of religion, race and ethnicity is nothing
but an attitude that excludes and otherizes humanity.
The solution to the problem comes through global peace and global justice.
Türkiye, being always on the side the oppressed and against the oppressor, has once
again become the spokesperson for human rights and justice.
The ombudsman is undoubtedly another mechanism that can be a spokesperson
for refugees. Again, I invite all ombudsmen around the world who are advocates
for rights and freedom to take action, especially regarding solutions for refugees’
human rights problems and grievances.
