Abstract

Papua New Guinea is a developing country located in Oceania within the specifications of the Melanesian family. Papua New Guinea in the status quo condition still faces various forms of domestic problems that have an impact on internal instability conditions. Acts of unrest are still massive in this country, which has an impact on poor economic conditions and a high poverty rate targeting all levels of the population. In January 2024, the international community was shocked by the news of riots that occurred in several cities in Papua New Guinea namely Port Moresby and Lae, due to the phenomenon of unilateral salary cuts to state civil servants without any further explanation from the government. The rioting by civil servants (police, public sector staff, and other civil servants) and opportunistic parties has had a huge impact on the internal conditions of the country forcing the city into a precarious situation and this phenomenon itself is exacerbated by the vacant position of the security forces due to their participation in this action. The unrest had a huge impact and led to acts of violence, murder, and looting aimed at several shops in the corners of the city. In response, James Marape as the Prime Minister of Papua New Guinea declared a national emergency for two weeks and attempted to bring in securitization measures to reduce the larger conflict that could break out at any time.

Abstract

Conflict-induced immigration has long been a humanitarian crisis not only in the countries where conflicts occur, but also in neighboring countries where refugees are fleeing. The Arab Spring uprisings spread to Syria, prompting demonstrations that were responded to excessively by security forces. Armed military forces were deployed to contain the wave of protests against the government, using repressive measures that resulted in the loss of many lives. The protests quickly spread across Syria and transformed into a civil war with external parties intervening. In a dangerous conflict situation, the Syrian population began to migrate out of the country. Turkey became the main destination for refugees as a place to stay and a stopover route before going to Europe. The wave of migration caused a refugee crisis in the European Union. Finally, the European Union took a step to cooperate in handling refugees with Turkey, the refugees will be placed in Turkey, while the European Union will reconsider Turkey's membership in the organization and provide financial assistance. The end of the Ba'ath party's rule in Syria signaled the end of the prolonged civil war and paved the way for refugees to return to their home countries. This will certainly affect the cooperation between Turkey and the European Union as the refugee crisis in the country decreases. Keywords: Turkey, European Union, Refugee Crisis
