Ah, because the UK has its own internal border where they would verify citizenship. I forgot about that. So you're saying that, if an Iraqi national is allowed entry into a hypothetical Turkey in the EU -- even if Turkey were to have open borders with the rest of the EU -- that same person would have to go through UK border security separately still.
- Symbiote 8y agoCorrect, and they would risk deportation in Turkey, the UK, or whatever EU state they reside in until discovered. The other countries tend to check residence before allowing a job, healthcare or similar.
- tathougies 8y agoWhy would they risk deportation if they legally entered turkey?
- riquito 8y agoThey wouldn't, somehow the parent must have thought about illegal immigrants, or felons
- Symbiote 8y agoI was still thinking in the context, several comments up, of > I mean... britain wouldn't be the ones policing the border, it would be turkey.
- tathougies 8y agoI was referring to Britain likely having different rules and standards for entry than Turkey.
- detaro 8y agoYes. Legally entering an EU country doesn't grant you the right to visit others, and the UK is in a geographically fairly unique position to really make sure people don't slip through.
