Recently at a conference in Sweden, the Dalilama, famous spiritual and world leader said,

Europe belongs to the Europeans and that refugees should go home to rebuild their own countries.

Naturally, this sparked a controversy. Many people on the left are saying that this is echoing

sentiment of nationalists and the alt-right. They're asking whether or not the Dalilama is racist

for suggesting that Europe belongs to the Europeans. And these comments come just after the Sweden

suggest that's not true. There is a study that suggests migrants do cause more crime for whatever

reason. So my question today is, does Europe really belong to the Europeans? You can comment below

and care at the conversation in the comments. But first, let's take a look at exactly what the Dalilama

said to better understand his point of view. Europe belongs to the Europeans and suggests refugees

The Tibetan Buddhist spiritual leader also said that refugees should return to their native countries

and assist with developing them. The 14th Dalilama was speaking at a conference in Malmuss, Sweden,

which is home to a large immigrant population according to the business times. Receive them,

help them, educate them. But ultimately, they should develop their own country, the 83-year-old
