Turkey, A Migrant Integration Policy Index Assessment, October 2013
Among the OSCE countries with a relatively new tradition of immigration, Turkey stands out as a particularly significant hub of migration flows for regular migrants, as well as for those irregular and in transit. While the country has historically been at the centre of major movements of voluntary and forced in-migrants, throughout much of the 20th century it was regarded as a country of emigration.
