I am writing this on the assumption that there is some truth behind every joke...
Not that I am dying to visit the UK myself but aren´t you aware the world is cramming with people from the US, Germany and England? For example, English schools here are full of teachers who hold no licenses, there may be more Russians than there are Turks in Antalya and this is not only true for Turkey. Either through invasion or through other reasons, there are more citizens of aforementioned countries all around the world than the entire population of Turks.

Can´t talk for the UK, but if people have good business plans, diplomas and experience than why not? To me they are welcome in my country.
And besides the reason of business I still find it unfair that I can travel almost everywhere without (too much) harassment and Turks (e.g.) who want to go on just a holiday need loads of papers and proof they´ll return. It withholds me from inviting friends to come over. If I should want to invite a friend from Turkey for let´s say a week, I need to plan that 6-12 months (!!) upfront, have to prove myself I´m financial ok, I have to sign papers that I´m responsible for them - also in financial way, etc. etc. That doesn´t smoothen an invitation.

not just businessmen but all the Turkish citizens have "the right" to get in the EU countries without a visa but this right is well violated by the european countries without much resitance from Turkey at least until recently.

I was referring to the resent influx of Turks to Houston. There are currently about 15 thousand. For my husband and I, it is a wonderful thing. There are many Turkish restaurants, shops, festivals, organizations right in our local area. We even have a consulate which makes doing paperwork very easy and convenient. Of course, since I have been married to a Turk, I notice all things Turkish. They were probably always there, but I just notice them more. Perhaps for this reason, it seems like an invasion.

I see. It is interesting that there should be an influx of Turks when the US economy is going through an economic crisis. One reason pops up in my mind is the statistical find indicating an uneven distribution of ethnicities in the US. There are so many people from certain ethnic backgrounds and too few from others. That is why there is a lottery system in place (as far as I know) that favours nations having smaller communities in the country a.k.a The Green Card System.
A while ago I watched a documentary (shot by some US TV) on Turkish minorities in the US cities. It was claimed that Turkish communities are small and isolated groups with minimal contact with the rest of the society. The documentary also claimed that other minorities (like the Chinese) were threatening security in New York´s Turkish quarter.
I have a weird idea that being able to travel around the world must be one of the basic freedoms. There must of course be certain limitations in this. An active society restlessly traveling from one place to another in pursuit of adventure, business and you name what can produce much more compared to a stagnant society where there are restrictions of all sorts at the gates. This has what fueled the immense growth of the US economy since its foundation.

I think Turks need a visa for most (if not all) EU countries, just like we do when visiting Turkey. The unfair difference is that we can obtain visa at the airport while it´s not so easy for Turks. I wish things were easier for them, they´d see that Europe is not as bad as they imagine.
I don´t see many Turks around here, it´s a pity as I wouldn´t mind a Turkish bakery nearby

Only the EU and US citizens have ´visa at the airport´ convenience in Turkey. Turks are not so benevolent and lovely to take anybody to their country, because they love diversity. They only give easy visas to people who they believe will spend in Turkey and improve their economy.
I doubt that they would take a person whom they know that the government will have to support and who will only contribute to more social problems that the country can already barely handle.

These are the countries from which Turkey doesn`t require a visa in advance. I`m leaving the task of evaluating how many of these countries are members of the EU and how many of them are rich countries for catwoman.

I think that will be the correct assesment generically..
In the end, each country is trying to get more people who would want to spend money during their stays..
Many countries such as Holland etc, we say that ´you require visa´ but we let them pay at the entrance..
I can see no problem with that..
But ´not loving diversity´ has been a huge and embarresing problem and it is very well connected to the nationalism; seeing the each foreign person as aperson blong to a country which is our enemy, trying to devide us etc..
There is also a serious amount of ´inferior complex´ too as far as the western countries are concerned..
And as far as refugees are concerned, I am not an expert but I remember reading horible reports about them..

The last few messages in this thread seriously need the attention of a moderator. There is no use in keeping messages where people curse one another on a public forum. You could just delete them.
Meanwhile, mhsn supertitiz you should really behave yourself or face a ban or other restrictions. If there is a technical shortage in this department, this too should be taken care of. Please act like a gentleman and don´t forget to pay respect to other people sharing this forum.

Catwoman, the reason why EU and US citizens are asked a visa is based on a principle called reciprocity. It is a hypocratic way of organizing matters so they look right on paper. For example, Germany requires a visa of Turkish citizens and so does Turkey. As a result, the principle of mutuality is technically not violated.
As for the reason why it has become more difficult for non-Europeans to enter the country: you know Turkey has been (hypocratically) granted the status of accession into European membership. Therefore like all other members, all the legal procedures, regulations, laws and a plethora of other formalities need to go through a process of compliance. Since Turkey will (God knows when) become European land,
non-European people entering the country will in fact enter Europe. Since Europe is quite conservative about its borders, Turkey must be equally conservative.
Excuse me but we shouldn´t come to quick conclusions like Turks not being so benevolent... I know they are not at all, but if you criticize Turks in this regard, you are actually criticizing the European stand point..
Only the EU and US citizens have ´visa at the airport´ convenience in Turkey. Turks are not so benevolent and lovely to take anybody to their country, because they love diversity. They only give easy visas to people who they believe will spend in Turkey and improve their economy.

Thinking is that ´it was ajoke´ is more embarressing for him..
Because it can be considered as ´someone spitting on your face and you are trying to deflect the situation by saying that -oh the rain has started´

They would have been accepted in through the Tier 1 of the new immigation system. Applications are made through the Home Office, would have taken a few weeks and they would have to met strict criteria.
