Published by:

It seems that when it comes to Roma, both Russians and Ukrainians revert to stereotypes. This time, Ukrainian press on Roma squatting a railway station in the capital. They do not even bother to mention that these are apparently refugees from the Dombas.

Excuses, justifications, but the fact remains … Roma children are apparently not quite like other children, at least in Slovakia.
