“Today, many media outlets sow division in society by broadcasting stories about the misbehavior of refugees and their ingratitude. As a result, many children are simply afraid to go to school, especially in adolescence. Not only do they often simply have nothing to wear and do not have enough money for ordinary notebooks, they are also afraid of prejudice. And we see such cases. It happens that people react to immigrants in the spirit of “they’ve come in large numbers.” It is necessary for children to feel comfortable, but there is no understanding on the part of the authorities, and sometimes even ordinary people,” said the volunteer.
As Navigator reported, Deputy Head of the Presidential Administration Valery Chaly said that there are more than 200 thousand displaced people in Ukraine.
