Shaykh al-Islam of Caucasia and Azerbaijan Allahşükür Paşazade wished the Summit to contribute to the World Peace and Alliance of Civilizations. He stated that, the rationale of the world peace is endangered is that being estranged to the moral values. Besides, he added that the multiculturalism policy in Azerbaijan was founded by national leader Heydar Aliyev and is successfully developed and continued by the President of the Republic of Azerbaijan, H.E. Ilham Aliyev.

Ecumenical Patriarch of Istanbul Bartholomeos remarked that the historic City of Istanbul is at the crossroads of Europe and Asia. Following, he indicated that terrorism, wars and conflicts are a constant reality of international agenda and happen everywhere from Paris to Lahor and beyond. Patriarch Bartholomeos added that "freedom is a hope for the future, even when liberty is limited or denied. There is no freedom without solidarity and since we all share the common values, we should enhance the solidarity between every individual human being. Thus, we must work together to fight illegal immigration."

According to H.E. Taher Al Masri, the Former Prime Minister of Jordan, terrorism is the main axis of division of the people. The matters dividing people may be ethnic, religious or based on social strata. However, whatever the cause is the interaction of the people is crucial. From our point of view, differences constitutes not obstacles but riches. It is self-evident that national dialogue is a far superior and less heartbreaking alternative than war to settle differences. International terrorism must be precluded. Because, international terrorism lies at the bottom of the current "Migration Crisis". In order to put to an end to these sufferings, we should get to the root of the problem.

H.E. Emir Kır, the Former State Minister of Belgium said that at the national level we have been faced several attacks across the world however, one should bear in mind that terrorism is international. Our democratic values are under the threat of terrorism. Thus, acting together is one of the most effective way of fighting against terrorism. Since the terrorism is a global issue, fight against terrorism should be a global concern that goes beyond local and national borders. Our fight needs to be in terms of precautionary measures through military and security forces.

H.H. Muhamed Jusufspahic, the Mufti of Serbia, there were actually no Syrian refugees but “ousters.” They are not seeking refuge in other countries; they have their countries. They are ousters. The situation is not only ethnic cleansing but also a religious cleansing. 

H.H. Yusuf Çetin, the Patriarchal Vicar of the Syriac Orthodox Church in Istanbul and Ankara. One of the most effected people of the current conflicts in the Middle East was the Syriac community. Unfortunately, conflict and terrorism have no boundaries, such as religion, nationality or sect. Thus we ought to help all migrants without any discrimination.

H.E. Mihai-Viorel Fifor, Senator of Romania/Leader of the National Council of the Social Democratic Party. Paris, Ankara, Brussels, Lahore, Istanbul, Iskanderiyah and many other places around the world have been added to the map of terrorist bloodshed. In this turbulent and very tense environment, migration still remains a considerable challenge for all of us. Building fences in Europe is not a solution for migration crisis. For the solution, international community should focus on devising realistic plans designed to make stabilization of Syria.

H.E. Edin Ramic, Minister of Displaced Persons & Refugees of the Federation of the BiH. The rights of migrants and refugees are under the protection of the Dayton Peace Agreement via Article 7. However, today, as much as half of the population of 4 million of Bosnia and Herzegovina, have to live as migrant outside the borders of the country. Without doubt, these 2-million-Bosnian migrants will contribute to the economy in the case they return their homeland, Bosnia.

H.E. Mihail Formuzal, Former Governor of the Autonomous Region of Gagauzia of Moldova. Emergence of the crisis between the two major Eurasian countries, Russia and Turkey, unquestionably effects Gagauzia that has a small population, scarce of natural resources and a weak economy. Before the decision of declaring autonomy, the impact of migration analyzed at large. Gagauzia now face with several threats directed from both national and international level. Being strong with our potential is the only way to withstand these threats.

H.E. Rene van der Linden, Senator of Holland/Honorary President of the Parliamentary Assembly of the European Council. The year 2015 has been marked by two historical events; United Nations’ Climate Change Conference -COP-21 and United Nations Sustainable Development Summit. Achievement of the SDGs and realization of the objectives of the Paris Agreement, offers new opportunities for job creation, innovation, economic growth, social equity and environmental rejuvenation. These opportunities have been strongly linked to the concept of the Circular Economy.

H.H. Mgr Yusuf Sağ, Deputy Patriarch of the Turkish Syriac Catholic Church. Unless an interfaith dialogue and cooperation, there is no possibility to give an end to the international terrorism. There is no existed religion that disregards other religions or people. In contrary, they are integrative instead of discriminative.

H.E. Werner Fasslabend, Former Minister of Defense of Austria, in his presentation, the migration roots of 8-million refugees from Africa and the Middle East are demonstrated. He asserted that powerful EU countries attempted to protect their borders by closing them to refugees since one of the most important policy of EU, the Schengen Agreement being imperiled. 
 

H.E. Egemen Bağış, Former Minister Minister of State, of European Union Affairs of Turkey. For 4 years, Turkey is a home to 2,7 million Syrian refugees that provided with better conditions than European countries. Since last 30 years, we have been dealing with terrorism. However Europe is not supportive for our fight. Instead, countries such as Belgium protected terrorists against Turkey. International collaboration is the key element of the counter-terrorism. 

H.R.H. Letizia Reuss, Ambassador for the Paris Centre for Cosmological Physics. Terrorism and the phenomenon of migration are inseparable. Whether a genuine refugee, an economic migrant or a terrorist, the smugglers lend the money to the migrants. In order to pay back their debt, they are forced in illegal activities. On the other hand, tendency to terrorism among Muslims is another issue. In 2015, only 16% of the 800’000 migrants were women. Muslim women are the keystone to the fight against radicalization and to the integration of Muslims.

Hon. Alina Barbulescu, Special Adviser Of The President On The EU Energy Policy. Europe needs a truly common European asylum system with harmonized procedures throughout Europe rather than national efforts. It is necessary taking measures to include and integrate migrants into society and the labor market.

H.E. Safet Softić, First Deputy Speaker of the House of Peoples PABiH. As a consequence of the armed conflicts in the Middle East there has been a migration of a large number of the population. As Bosnia and Herzegovina, several institutions and agencies including the Intelligence and Security Agency within the Ministry of Security have composed in order to control and manage the large-scale influx of migrants / refugees to Bosnia and Herzegovina.

H.E. Ionut Vulpescu, Member of Parliament of Romania. The two phenomena that we have been confronting are terrorism and migration. It would be wrong to read these problems in terms of clash of civilizations or religious conflicts. The causes of them are much more complex and deeper and the solutions are mainly political. History proves that totalitarian regimes haven't been more efficient in managing these two phenomena than democratic regimes are. On the contrary, totalitarianism has generated state terrorism.

H.E. Melika Mahmutbegović, Deputy President of Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The post-war trauma of Bosnians that they passed through was severe. Bosnia and Herzegovina have hold the Western and Eastern cultures at the same time for centuries. However, the Balkans is far from tolerance and there is still a risk of war. We have already accustomed to the international war and we don't afraid from terrorism. We are in the hope of solving the international terrorism problem together in unity.

Hon. Yu Hongjun, Vice President of the Chinese People's Association for Peace and Disarmament (CPAPD). We must block the channels of terrorist movement and financing of terrorism. We should promote de-radicalization by taking an integrated approach with a view to address both the symptoms and root causes to fight against terrorism. We believe that only by appropriate settlement of regional disputes, restoration of regional stability, enhancement of governing capacity of different countries and feasible improvement of people’s well-beings through economic development, can all forms of problems originating from terrorism be removed from the root.

Hon. Assist. Prof. Özlem Çuhadar, Marmara University. Societies which do not attach a great importance to art and science are the ones which cause emigrants. In our home country, terrorism not only give harm to security forces but also to ordinary citizens and artworks. Palmyra Antique City blasted by ISIS is a great example from recent history. Or several ancient mosques in the Diyarbakır's Sur district unfortunately shared the same fate.

H.H. İzak Haleva, Chief Rabbi of Turkey. Terrorism and forced migration is then common problem of humanity. And I would like to state that I'm ashamed of my humanity and desperateness of not being able to remediate to the suffered ones as a religious man. Embracing refugees, feeding and hearing them is a responsibility of humanity. But this is only a temporary solution. Permanent solution can only be realized when migrants return to their homeland and continue their lives in prosperity and confidence.

H.E. Jusuf Kalamperovic, Former Minister of Interior Affairs of Montenegro. He expressed his desire that the Summit contribute and bring forward persistent solution to terrorism and forced migration and thanked to the organizers of the Eurasian Economic Summit.

Hon. Thiemo Fojkar, President of European Association of Institutes for Vocational Training. We firmly believe that education is the key to integration - integration of socially disadvantaged people who have long been in the hosting country, and integration of those who have arrived recently. We must ensure that those people who have currently received asylum and protection in any of our European countries will be integrated as far as possible. This can also be achieved through further professional qualification measures. And that's what the EVBB stands for.

Hon. Debo Sow, Technical Advisor to Minister of Economy and Finance of Senegal. Poverty reduction approaches may have to be implemented in order to give better standards of living to the people of developing countries so the youth will not be potential targets for enrolment to the terrorist groups. Jihadist ideology and philosophy must be prevented. The number of the refugees in Senegal about 100.000.
