01.02.2015 Bulgaria: Medics claim attack at hands of Rroma

A doctor in the Bulgarian town of Vrachesh clains having been attacked by Rroma for being late attending a pregnant Rromni. According to the government, there have been 175 such attacks blamed on Rroma in the last year. The Bulgarian Health Minister,  Peter Moscov, went as far as stating that emergency medical help should be restricted in some Rroma areas. He also stated “he who has chosen to behave like a brute will be treated as one”. Many organisations called for Moscov to resign, and he eventually apologised for his statements.

This problem is a social one, with many Rroma not even having basic health insurance, and not one of Rroma vs. Bulgarians. It is a sheer poverty and ghetto issue. Nothing more, nothing less.
