    I remember during the refugee crisis a few years back that my town became a hot spot for refugees, since it is close to Germanys border. The people, traumatised, have been treated like shit, no real bed to sleep in, no job opportunities to make some cash, etc. Worst of all, that camp, where they were kept refugee, was right under a motorway bridge. Not forget to mention how racist people in town were and treated them like animals. Ukrainians on the other hand, were and still are welcomed with open arms. They’re given their own houses, jobs, about 200€ per month. They can also enjoy free taxi rides and if they should arrive with cars, park them freely. I even saw a Range Rover with an Ukrainian license plate parking there. The people who owned that car treated that situation like it’s holidays. I even had to live with one of them, but at then end, she was using us to get more money. Her house is still standing in Ukraine, working in home office, while also getting those 200€/month and a well paid job. I’m still asking myself today, where was support like that for the other refugees??
