Izabela Tiberiade, an expert in international law and human rights, discusses the prejudices faced by Roma in Romania compared to those abroad, highlighting the internalized racism in Romania.

She contrasts her experiences in Romania, where ethnicity often overshadows individual actions, with her time abroad, particularly in Sweden, where she felt judged based on her actions rather than her ethnicity.

Tiberiade addresses the issue of Roma beggars in Sweden, emphasizing that they are EU citizens exercising their right to free movement, and discusses the societal divisions regarding their status as either economic migrants or vulnerable groups.
