He would soon be going home to Ankara, Tutkoli said, because the West Germans did not want people like him around anymore. Until recently, the #Government of Chancellor #HelmutKohl was offering foreigners without ''valid'' jobs about $3,600 per adult and $500 per child to leave the country.
...
''We were invited in by these Germans when they had a need for us,'' Tutkoli said bitterly. ''They made full use of us to build their economy, and now they want to kick us out. They are making life extremely unpleasant for us here. There are anti-Turkish marches, our women are molested, our children are abused and beaten up.

All things are best when done without excess: it is as wrong to hurry off a guest who does not wish to leave as to detain a man who longs for home. Kind care for those who stay — and warm farewells for those who go.
[ἶσόν τοι κακόν ἐσθ᾽, ὅς τ᾽ οὐκ ἐθέλοντα νέεσθαι
ξεῖνον ἐποτρύνει καὶ ὃς ἐσσύμενον κατερύκει.
χρὴ ξεῖνον παρεόντα φιλεῖν, ἐθέλοντα δὲ πέμπειν.]
Homer (fl. 7th-8th C. BC) Greek author
The Odyssey [Ὀδύσσεια], Book 15, l. 72ff [Menelaus to Telemachus] (c. 700 BC) [tr. Mandelbaum (1990)]
