handle is hein.journals/drtom2019 and id is 115 raw text is: RAPORT UNHCR - TENDINTE GLOBALE: STRAMUTAREA FORTATA IN 2018 DANIELA ALBU* Abstract: The 2018 Global Trends Report of UNHCR on forced displacement shows that there is a rise in the number of refugees as a result of persecution, conflict, violence, or human rights violations. By the end of the year 70,8 million individuals were forcefully displaced worldwide. The figure includes refugees and other displaced people not covered by UNHCR's mandate and excludes other categories such as returnees and non-displaced stateless people. Sixty-seven per cent of refugees come from only five countries: Syria (6.7 million), Afghanistan (2.7 million), South Sudan (2.3 million), Myanmar (1.1 million), and Somalia (0.9 million). The Report also focuses on the dire situation in Venezuela, which forced more than 3 million people to flee their country during 2018 due to lack of food and medicine, violence and poverty. The report also tackles relocation and integration of refugees. In 2018, 92,400 refugees were relocated in 25 countries, especially Canada, USA, Australia, UK and France. With regards to integration, it is difficult to distinguish between naturalized refugees and people who are not refugees. 62,600 refugees were naturalized, which is 10,800 less than in the previous year.
