Lebanon: citizens: 4.5 million - Syrian refugees in Lebanon: 1.2 million (registered)!

Jordan: Citizens: 9.7 million - Syrian refugees: 650,000 (registered)

Turkey: Citizens: 79 million - Syrian refugees: 2.7 million (registered)

Saudi Arabia: Citizens: 32 million - Syrian refugees: 0 (registered)

Iran: Citizens: 80 million - Syrian refugees: 0 (registered)

The other gulf states have done little to help. UAE, Qatar, and all those wealthy gulf countries have also taken in 0 refugees. They're far more similar culturally than Europeans are to these people.

You didn't read my other post apparently

Saudi Arabia? Citizens: 30 million, Refugees: 420,000  http://gulfmigration.eu/media/pubs/exno/GLMM_EN_2015_11.pdf

Iran? N/A (but probably less than 1000)

U.A.E? Citizens: 9.2 million, Refugees: 242,000 http://www.khaleejtimes.com/nation/government/uae-home-to-242000-syrians

 

You are right about Iran, but Saudi Arabia has clearly taken more than 0 refugees ;)

Edit: You are partially right, the Syrian refugees in Saudi Arabia and U.A.E aren't registered as refugees, but more as foreign workers. Nonetheless I agree the gulf states haven't done enough.
