The family of the boy who died in the sea was granted asylum in Canada

3-year-old Allian, his 5-year-old brother Ghalib, their mother Rehan and other other travelers died when the waves turned their boat on which they were trying to cross the border, fleeing the war in Syria. They died in September 2015. They were Kurds, they could not run across the border to the south, nor to the east, nor to the north. The only thing they could do was run to the west, across the sea. In their dreams and dreams, they did not expect welfare, they wanted only one thing - peace and live. The beach in Bodrum, where in the photo lies the dead 3-year-old Allian, is in one of the most beautiful resort places. The city of Bodrum is an ancient ancient city, here was one of the seven wonders of the world - the tomb of the dawn of Mausoleum (Mausoleum or Mavsol) (by his name all the mausoleums of the world are named). The city is located opposite the island of Kos. There is an opinion that on hospitality, Greece can be compared with Turkey. The photo of the deceased Alyan was published in the media around the world, aroused general sympathy and indignation towards the developed countries, due to a lack of commitment to help refugees.

The dead bodies were buried in a Kurdish city, near the border with Turkey. During the burial ceremony, the father of the deceased said he hoped that the death of his family would give impetus to the courage of Arab countries to help Syrian refugees.

The father of the deceased children Abdulah Kurdi for the media said: I wish the Arab countries - not the European countries - will see what happened to the children, and for their sake, they will help people.

According to the Montenegrin media on November 27, 2015, the aunt of the deceased 3-year-old Aljana, who lives in Vancouver, told reporters that Canada's immigration services granted asylum to his family.

Next week, Canada will start accepting Syrian refugees, before the end of the year, it is expected to accept about 10,000 refugees. It is estimated that 15,000 Syrian refugees will arrive in Canada in January and February.

Alian al-Kurdi, his brother Ghalib, their mother Rehan and relatives, their Kurdish people, as well as all other men, women, children who run across the sea to Europe with the only hope - to live, can not be migrants in any way. They are called refugees.

Migrants, by definition of the United Nations, people who for personal and economic reasons move from one place to another. Refugees can not send back where the war is, if their status is recognized. Refugees do not have any food, no clothes, they run in what they have on themselves. Most refugees have no documents. Refugees can not be recognized as having committed a crime, including terrorism.

Refugees, as a rule, receive a part of their rights on an equal basis with the citizens of the host country, some as other foreigners in the country. They receive the right to work, travel documents, and the process of obtaining citizenship is carried out in preferential order.

The Refugee Convention was adopted in Geneva in 1951. It defines the very concept of who is a refugee, and also on what grounds this status is granted. The Convention prohibits any discrimination against refugees.


The problem of refugees was seriously surfaced during the First World War. A new wave arose when the Nazis came to power in Germany. In 1938 an Intergovernmental Committee was established to cope with the influx of refugees from Germany.

Another wave emerged during the Second World War. The Universal Declaration of Human Rights was adopted in 1948.
