Subject: Health Coverage for Refugees in Turkey
From: Iranian Refugees and Asylum Seekers in Turkey
According to reports from Turkey, the Turkish Immigration Offices have canceled the health insurance for Iranian refugees and asylum seekers residing in the country. This has caused concerns among them.
Some Iranian refugees have reported to the Campaign to Defend Political and Civil Prisoners that their health insurance has been canceled. According to some sources:
‘Turkish Immigration Offices can now put pressure on asylum seekers in violation of their basic human rights.’
The United Nations has delegated some of its support for refugees to the Turkish Government. The UN has not given a convincing response to the refugees concerns.
We, the undersigned, urge all international organizations and the media to voice their concerns with human rights organizations and other authorities, including the UNHCR and the European Governments.
We also urge the (UNHCR) to act in support of the refugees.
