Published by:

Another article on the closure of a migrant’s camp near the Frankfurt’s railway station. Many of its residents were Romanian Roma. As in France, no alternative was provided to the people, and they will land back on the streets.

Slovakia and Children

Published by:

A depressing article about the prospects of young Roma from the settlements: If a child is born in a Roma settlement, he has no prospects for the future. He or she usually ends as his parents – without an education and under-employed. According to experts, poverty in Slovakia is due because of the persistent prejudice and the inability of schools to adapt to the needs of Roma children.

Ukraine and Pogroms

Published by:

An article on the series of Pogroms in the Ukraine and the de-facto impunity of the perpetuators. Scary is the fact that this anti-Roma attitude in society has gained hold in recent years.
Bad for all.

Ukraine: Follow Up

Published by:

The lawyer defending the Roma victims of an attack on a camp in the Kharkiv region was brutally attacked. And the leader of the attacker was none other than a local prosecutor. Apparently, the attackers were not even masked and there is CCTV coverage.
Bad.
Also bad that the newspaper used the picture of a Roma shantytown from Paris. It is the camp of the petite ceinture – on the tracks of a disused train line.

Roma are deprived of health care
According to the President of the Union of Roma of Slovenia Jožko Horvat Muca, the Roma community is deprived of health care. “Roma are still living in often illegal settlements, under bad conditions, without drinking water and electricity. All of this contributes to the poor health situation”.

Published by:

Yet again a SVP politician making rabid statements against Roma. So far, no one made a formal complaint to the police. This is unfortunately being felt as almost useless in Switzerland where a politician stating that all Roma lie, are lazy, dirty etc. has not been considered to the worthy of a condemnation …

Schooling is difficult for Roma in Bosnia. In Modrički Lug, a van was is planned to be bought in order to ferry Roma children to the nearby city of Vukosavlje, where they can pursue their school career. There is no upper secondary school in the city, and due to poverty, most cannot afford the transport. The purchase is a local Roma initiative.

French Chronicle …

Published by:

Is it a trend? Or is it a change? The news this week on Roma in France are definitively different. Education, about a Romni in Montreuil fighting for the enrolment of Roma children in school; help, with a story of students of a prestigious French university (Science Po) devoting time to Roma in Poitiers; a Roma manifestation in Nice about the living conditions in Romania; a movie about a Roma family; an integration centre is being discussed in the North of France and one opened near Paris in Ivry; and then the usual news, a fire in a camp in the North, and a camp closure near Paris.
Finally, racism in France with Moslems and Roma coming on the top of the league … A depressing pattern in Europe.
