]]> More news this week. The question of the relocation of the inhabitants of one of the largest Roma settlement in France near Nantes, is still open. In a small commune in Britanny, the mayor and the village is involved in finding decent lodging solutions for the Roma living in a camp there. In the South, the new prefect of the region is multiplying expulsions of Roma. The story of a student who was attacked by Roma in Grenoble to steal his mobile. The main perpetrator apparently fled France to Romania. Finally, the movie “A Bras Ouverts”, heavily criticised and rightly so for its pandering of racist stereotypes is apparently having a huge success on Netflix in France.

]]> Employees of “ViK – Smolyan” in central Bulgaria, together with police teams, carried out a massive inspection in the Roma neighbourhood of Ustovo, known as “Second Kilometre”. The reason was suspicion of illegal connection to the water supply network.

They found illegal connections. On the other hand, as the municipalities refuse to acknowledge the existence of these Roma neighbourhood, their inhabitants have no other means than illegally tap water and electricity.

Bad.

]]> A tendentious article about Roma camps in Naples. The reality is described correctly, the background is totally ignored. Why Roma were parked in segregated camps overseen by the police, why the mafia was involved in this, and now, again, there is collective guilt of all Roma.

]]> An article about the fact that parking Roma in camps or razing them is not going to resolve the issue and will not bring children to school. In fact, most children in those camps do not go to school at all.

Bad, but nothing new in Italy.

]]> In Besançon, in Eastern France, the Roma community commemorated the 13th of June marking the expulsion of Roma from Kosovo in 1999. In Toulouse, in the Southwest of France, a camp that has been standing for 19 years will soon be closed. 130 Romanian Roma families will lose their houses.

Finally, an article about racism in France that seems to be less prevalent than expected. Racism seems to go together with the fear of migrants.

]]> The interdisciplinary cultural project “Dom” presents the reality of marginalized children in Bulgaria through the means of painting and video. The project is of a documentary nature, and the goal is to draw attention to the impact of the social environment on children and the place they occupy in it.

Initially, the fields of research were the Roma Mahalas in Svoge and Stolipinovo in Plovdiv, but after the events surrounding the destroyed houses in the “Zaharna Fabrika” district in Sofia, where Roma houses were recently destroyed, they decided to include them in their project.

]]> There is a Roma settlement on Lechicka Street in Poland, a real ghetto. Fires often occur there, mostly due to the accumulated garbage. The Poznań City Office has been demanding that it be cleaned up for several years. As reported by Radio Poznań, city officials went to inspect. Apparently, the owner of the land, who is staying in the United States, has already been fined 4 times, amounting to several dozen thousand złoty. It seems that enforcing the clean-up is difficult.

]]> Only one significant news in the French press this week, with Jean Baptiste Borsali, the mayor of the town of Le Bourget, near Paris, asking the interior minister to evacuate two camps of Roma in this town. The mayor reports “insistent and sometimes aggressive begging”, an “increase in burglaries and snatch thefts”, a “growing sense of insecurity”, an “uncontrollable proliferation of pests despite pest control efforts” and “streets and sidewalks littered with rubbish from systematic garbage rummaging”.
