[edit] Did it?

"the government and others in society ignored the integration of the migrants. This led to educational, religious and social discrimination of the migrants in Germany."

So, if I went to Turkey to work on a visa granted for a year, I could expect the state there to help me integrate and not discriminate against me educationally, religiously and socially? Is it the fault of the Germans that these people brought their families, rather than returning home as was the original agreement?

What precisely do you mean by discriminating against them religiously? Were they forbidden to practise their religion? Were they subject to the same kind of restraints that for example Christians would be if they went to live in a Muslim-dominated country?

Can I go to one of the Eastern countries with a large number of people from my country and demand that they provide me with services in my native language? Should I demand that we be given grants for social and cultural activities?
