  Population density is a shit stat to use for this, most of Egypt is uninhabitable.

  Egypt is literally a desert. Most of the country is uninhabitable. Do you propose they just start shoving refugees into the desert?

    As is the rest of the region. Or are you saying the whole of the middle east is uninhabitable?

  I mean generally able to absorb refugees. It’s less a matter of current density, and more a matter of having resources, infrastructure and critically time to absorb them. Yes, I agree Europe and the US could do more.

    I’d hope they’d get a lot of NGO support

      It’s obviously way more complicated than that
