        Aron, I really hope you guys at least try to take a look to local laws next time, before deciding whose policy is doing what.. In Turkey Mayors can not deport anyone. According to Turkish laws, they just can't.. It is central government's call..

        Yeah - I'm not a lawyer (especially not a Turkish lawyer), but that's my understanding too. @AbeerPamuk wrote the piece, though, not me. Hopefully she can clear that part up.

        Hopefully she does.. Otherwise we cannot call it a report, can we? Maybe a nice fiction story, a one pager about a fictional Turkey.. But not a report.

        For the 1,000th time: the police, the governorship, the migration directorate are all under Ministry of the Interior. Neither the metropolitan nor local municipalities shape, dictate or implement the policies that have resulted in the deportation of Syrians from Istanbul. https://twitter.com/KenRoth/status/1154642165223608320 …

        Yes dear Aron, the fresh blood pumped into the veins of desperate and malcontent Kemalism by their occasional victory in recent elections quickly revitalized and encouraged them on pursuing their so far subdued and bottled malovelances. Seizing of SYRIAN SHISHAS came first.

        Mayor has not deported anyone! It's the central government who has the authority to deport. What an ignorant journalism.

        OK. Again. Turkish administrative/legal policy is formed by the government, not by mayors. Learn administrative/legal jurisdictions and also ask both sides for what is going on. The numbers for EU/UN aid are misleading along with the #'s of un/registered Syrians.

        There are 3.7 million Syrian refugees in Turkey, how many are there in Sweden?
