Ukraine’s Roma refugees recount discrimination en route to safety
Hundreds of Ukraine’s Roma people face an uncertain future in Moldova’s capital Chisinau as many are not documented.
Cristina travelled from Kharkiv to Lviv, then to the Moldovan border. But there, she said, she spent four days in the cold waiting to enter Moldova, without any food or water.
Once they found shelter, she and other Roma were chased out of their tents by the Ukrainian border authorities.
Cristina is one of an estimated 400,000 Ukraine’s Roma people who, besides the trauma of war, have to cope with discrimination along their evacuation route out of Ukraine.
Many have always been undocumented, others lost their papers during the war. All have limited options as to where they can go. But the hardest thing is the break-up of their families, which the Roma culture values more than anything.
At the border, her son was stopped and was drafted to fight for the Ukrainian army.

When Putin identifies Neo-Nazism in Ukraine it's because there is Neo-Nazism in Ukraine.
Racism is still rife in Europe. The Israelis are operating exit points for Jews only. NATO is allowing it.
Anybody believing Russia/bad, Ukraine/good has been brainwashed.
