I dont agree, the public was very warm towards Syrian refugees in the first couple years but it turned negative after the refugees went outside the camps into big cities and bringing many problems with it.Everyone sees refugees from Syria as cancer cells. Even if the refugees from Iran are South Azerbaijani Turks, I do not believe that this nation will embrace them. Especially that nationalist crew, they will first show the door to the South Azerbaijani Turks.
Sure that made a dent into public opinion about refugees but its a completely different matter when it come to ethnic Turks, you can see that with Uyghur refugees, i dont remember anyone complaining about them.
