Turkey’s ‘wall of shame’ on Syria border goes unnoticed

While the US wall on the border to Mexico has received plenty of attention sparking criticism and protests, Turkey’s construction of a 3 meter high and more than 500 km wall on the 900 km border to Syria has proceeded without much notice. Building of 290 kilometres of the wall has been completed as of January 2017.
