34 refugees from Syria arrive in Belgium on a humanitarian visa

On the early Thursday evening, a group of Syrian refugees arrived at the Brussels National Airport in Zaventem. Among the 34 refugees, Christian families from Syria, are also 15 children and adolescents. The entire group came to Belgium on a humanitarian visa. The entry had previously been agreed with the Belgian State Secretariat for Asylum and Immigration.

The refugees entered Turkey via a so-called humanitarian corridor – this is what they call safe and legal entry options in the refugee issue. They had to leave their homeland Syria because of the civil war there and lived so far in precarious circumstances in refugee camps in Turkey.

The transaction was governed by an agreement with the Belgian Federal Government and Asylum Secretary of State Theo Francken (N-VA). The entry with so-called “humanitarian visas” also took place in connection with an agreement involving all religious communities in Belgium.

This agreement was agreed in November 2017. Its aim is to bring a total of 150 Syrian refugees from religious minorities in Syria to Belgium. These refugees, most of them in mortal danger because of their faith since the war in their homeland, are either taken directly from Syria by air to Belgium or, as in this case, via Turkey.
