Stuck "new term from the terms created by the Coronavirus, added to the list of terms" displaced "," migrants "," refugees "and" displaced "... but, unfortunately, it has not yet been included in the United Nations conventions and human rights laws, and human rights organizations have not paid attention They have yet, perhaps because their tragedy does not reach the tragedy of other classes, or because they cannot raise their voices loudly in front of the media cameras, for fear of their families or their jobs and their livelihood.

Not taken into account

Airports, as usual, are crowded with people, employees, workers, travelers, and arrivals, and from depositors and recipients, they are not sour. At the door of the entrance hall, (SAL) looked at her pleading eyes with tears pouring down like a torrent, and she bid farewell to her husband: “Please, pay attention to the children, I know that your work takes you a long time, and that the follow-up of the children is difficult, but I will not be late, God willing, And had it not been for my father’s illness, I would not have traveled. Who knows why I don’t see him again ... Please, only three days, and you will find me among you again. ”

(AA) Who has exceeded fifty, walks at a heavy pace on his way to the departure hall, tying his wife's arm that does not stop smiling and praising, looking at him from time to time, and repeat the same phrases: “Do not worry, O Abu Mahdi, if he wants God the process ends well and returns with the safety of God and you are in good health, and all the pains are gone from you. Don't get caught up on boys and girls, their older sister Sarah is 12 years old, and she'll take care of them properly. Praise be to God, the company agreed to the sick leave without deducting it from your salary, and had it not been for this type of operation that was not present here, we would not have traveled and the children would have endured the hardship of travel.

(MQW) tightened the belt on his waist, ready to take off, as he wrapped up his conversation on the mobile, with a broad smile on his face saying: “Come on, Dad, I must end the call because the plane will take off now, and, God willing, I will buy you all the things that I have requested You will have a weekend, come on, give me a kiss and say goodbye.

Thousands of people, such as (SML), (SAA) and (MQW), were crowded with airports at the beginning of last March, or had already traveled, hoping to return after two days. Or a week or two, until the task they traveled for was spent, and they left behind their women, their husbands, their children, their businesses, their trade, their interests, their aspirations, and they never knew that something awaited them was not in their mind, and that their arrangements, promises, and obligations will not be accomplished in some way They planned it, when the countries started to close their airports, airspace and borders, as part of a series of precautionary measures that they took to curb the spread of the Corona epidemic, and the countries conducted special trips to return their citizens to them from the countries in which they are present, while those residing in them will suspend their return to another notice, and so these have become Residents (stuck).

Unfair arbitrary decision

Despite the harshness of the news on the stranded people, they initially thought that these countries decided that as organizational measures to prioritize the return of their citizens, but they soon discovered that the matter is not regulatory, but rather a critical decision taken by the relevant committees responsible for determining precautionary measures to confront The epidemic, their return tickets were canceled, and aviation offices closed in their faces, and they did not hear from the competent consular authorities of the countries in which they reside, but dry expressions telling them that these decisions came from the highest authorities, that they could not help them with anything, and that they had to wait until another decision allowing them to return .

It was an arbitrary and unjust decision in the full sense of the word, and it is not based on any practical or logical reasons requiring the creation of a tragedy for tens of thousands of people without any justification. The decision-makers did not think about the period during which these stranded people will spend in the countries in which they were stuck, and how they will manage their presence there for a long time, nor the financial expenses that result from them, nor the psychological pressures that put them under them, nor their families and circumstances, nor their jobs that they will lose, and their jobs that they will lose

Delaying the return of residents to their countries of residence is a decision that is extremely cruel, unfair and indifferent to the suffering of tens of thousands, without a health or unhealthy threat that they pose to the security of the state and the safety of its residents.

These stranded holders, valid residency in the countries in which they reside, and left their businesses and their families, and they do not differ from citizens in anything in terms of health, and in terms of their relationship to the virus

  •    Just as the resident may be injured, the citizen is also subject to this
  •    Just as the citizen was forced by the domestic quarantine upon his return to his country, the resident is obligated to this quarantine as well ..
  •   Just as the countries raised the slogan (Stay at Home) and everyone started doing their work from their homes after being imposed on their home quarantine, there is nothing to prevent the stranded residents from submitting to this, to be in their homes and with their families, instead of hotels, anxiety and waiting ..
  •  And if the countries are conducting checks on everyone, then do the examination for the stranded before entering the state to ensure their health safety, and even requiring each of them when traveling to submit an approved medical certificate that he does not carry the virus.
  •   Citizens have a state responsible for their security, pension, and health, and those trapped are subject to the responsibility of this state as long as they reside in it according to law and order, so how if their homes, families, and interests are in it.
  •  There are many measures that states can take to ensure the safety of stranded people and their freedom from any health suspicion that may threaten their residents, but the decision will be in this way, as it is the ultimate cruelty, arbitrariness, injustice, injustice, and indifference to the suffering of tens of thousands of stranded and their families, without a health or unhealthy threat they pose to State security and safety of its residents.

Viruses do not distinguish between citizens and residents

The stranded thought that the matter would end in a week or two, and soon they would return to their families and their deeds, but the week dragged after another, and the month has become two and three months, and what may be known only to God, and all of them may be in constant anticipation. Some countries allowed some painful humanitarian cases to return as exceptional, some were allowed to return only to those with certain occupations, some were allowed to return according to a specific schedule they had undertaken, some refused to return altogether, some specified late dates for their return, and some did not specify a date yet.

Raising the issue of the stranded, is not a diminishing of the role and responsibility of the authority in preserving the state and the safety of its residents, but in order to reconsider the decisions that were made - unintentionally - their tragedy, suffering, complaints, and tears that are still taking place without color, does not remind them of a tongue, and does not care about their responsible affairs .

Perhaps these countries missed that viruses do not distinguish between citizens and residents. Perhaps it was absent from the relevant committees that decided on the stranded, that they do not pose the slightest health or security threat to the state and its residents.

It may be absent from them that there are other options that can be taken to organize the return of the stranded, other than staying outside their country of residence, away from their families and businesses. But what is certain is that the specialized committees were very concerned with protecting the state and protecting its residents from the danger of the virus, and they did not deal with the issue of stranded people as they are not human beings, or they are people of a lower degree.

Time and time again, the events that reinforce the Qatari (border) country in the Arab world are repeated, and perpetuate racial discrimination between its countries on the basis of that country identity, without regard to all the connections that link the Arab countries with their children, or the large price material and moral they pay because of these events, And without regard to the effect of this consolidation and dedication in deepening the gap and increasing the rift between the Arab states, and in closing the door to reconciliation efforts and calls for rapprochement, integration and reconstruction, and without considering - and it is the most severe matter - because of what this causes by opening the door broadly to the enemies of the nation to individual in its countries, and extending its hegemony Upon them, plundering their wealth, and inciting each other.

The storm of Corona has revolted and is about to end, and so far we have not witnessed any joint Arab movement, looking at the causes, preventive measures, exchanging experiences, and providing support. It is the bleak painting that we pass from time to time, which mocks us greedily, increases us band and tearing, and we fill our breath with despair and frustration, is this not shameful ?!

Raising the issue of the stranded and giving it this importance is not a reduction in the authority and responsibility of the authority in preserving the state and the safety of its residents, nor a reduction in the efforts of the competent authorities and its role in achieving this, but rather in reviewing the decisions that made - without intent - the tragedy, suffering and complaints of those stranded And their tears, which are taking place so far without color, after the absence of joy and dryness, including smiling and reassurance, do not mention them to the tongue, does not care about their affairs, who are in a hurry to stop their suffering, and remove from them the misery of their misery.
