French Chronicle …

März 6, 2022 Published by: Roma Foundation

Few news on Roma, which is not surprising, as news are full of other more pressing issues.

Nevertheless, a few things: A meeting from the anti-racism league of France which still uses racist terms and is utterly confused by Roma, insisting there are Travellers, Manouches, Tsiganes, and Roma – the latter ones generally associated to Romania. Bad.

Other news are a fire in a camp ion Lille and angry neighbours of a camp in Villeneuve d’Asc in the North of France; in the southwest, a new camping site for Travellers; and finally, militants that are requesting solidarity with all refugees.

Volodymyr Yakovenko, director of the Ukrainian Youth Agency for the Promotion of Roma Culture (ARCA), asked the social network for help for the Ukrainian people, who are currently facing a humanitarian catastrophe as a result of the Russian military invasion. “I call on the entire world community to appeal to its leaders to call on Russia and Belarus to withdraw their troops from Ukraine. Stop this war! We do not want this war, we want to stay alive!”
