I am very skeptical.

I saw the videos from another source, a lot of the blacks denied entry on the train were men. But it is illegal right now for all men between the ages of 18-60 to leave the country, so how they jump to assume this is racism.

Also, is it really wrong for Ukrainians to prioritize their own nationals to flee the country over economic migrants? It isn’t clear to me. And it is quite understandable.

That is for the trains leaving kiev. The border situation with Poland is a different issue and story. Does Poland have the right to decide which nationals they admit in? Yes. Isn’t it quite likely that the Africans are in reality economic Migrants who would be unlikely to want to return to Ukraine? Of course! It is normal for countries to treat economic migrants quite differently from true refugees.

Poland can accept Ukrainians and turn back africans if they want. Ukrainians can mix readily in Polish society, there is a very large number there already and they’d be happy to have far more.

I would not be surprised if this article is badly downplaying what percentage of these Africans that are actually men travelling alone— the press was very guilty of this when it came to Syrian refugees.

Oops, meant to include you guys in my post #19.

Also, meant to say: To be fair, the Greek foreign ministry also said 10 ethnic Greeks have been killed in the bombing.

Finger slipped and posted before I was ready.

Anyway, I would not want to be a Greek there. Bombed by Russians, threatened with death up-close-and-personal and by Azov.
