  5. Did you know.. After the U.S invasion of Iraq, the number of asylum seekers increased in Sweden. In the last recent years, the number of asylum seekers has decreased. However... the Northern countries are still receiving the most refugees in EU, which is something we should keep working for.

  6. EU The member states in the EU can affect the flow of refugees themselves by change and create new laws and rules for the asylum seekers. Some countries may receive all of the refugees, and some countries may not let anyone in. This can cause major problems in the countries with few refugees, but also in countries that receives more refugees than others.. .. problems like racism and xenophobia.

  7. Asylum seekers in EU The decisions that the countries will make depends on their willingness to achieve the common levels of asylum seekers, that the states of the EU agreed on. When a refugee comes to Europe, he or she, must seek asylum in the first country he or she arrives to. Though, many refugees chooses to make a dangerous journey through EU. Why? In some countries it is easier to get asylum, and some may have family and friends in a certain country.

  8. EU When the conditions change, it spreads rapidly to other countries. In Sweden the number of Somali asylum seekers decreased after a decision that made it impossible for Somali relatives and family members to come to Sweden. This means that Somali families can not reunite in Sweden. 39% of the Somali refugees comes to Sweden.

  9. Xenophobic Parties When xenophobic parties are a part of the parliament, it affects the flow of refugees in a negative way. The political climate gets harder and the counterarguments against migration many. Is migration a problem or a resource?
