Domari in Irak

Published by:

One speaks too little about them, but the Domari – the Middle Eastern cousins of Roma suffered tremendously from IS. In one of their villages the school was reconstructed recently in Iraq.
Good but the press should use the proper name instead of calling them “Gypsies” in a more politically correct fashion.

Janos Lazar: Slovak Reactions

Published by:

Incredulity on the Slovakian side at the statements of Janos Lazar, one of Orban’s staunchest supporters on Roma and Migrants whereby the situation of Roma shows one cannot integrate migrants. He said that Roma could not be integrated even in 600 years…
Mind you, Mr. Lazar was in charge of the integration of Roma between 2008 and 2012 with the money of Georges Soros … What an irony.
