[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They are economic migrants, they are bouncing from country to country, trying to find opportunities and ways to get to the west.

Is the west obligated to take them?  Especially now, when they are dealing with actual war refugees?

Why aren't these mostly young and able-bodied people trying to make their own countries a better place?[/quote]

A better question is “what did their governments do to evacuate and ensure the safety of their citizens?”

I hope we won’t find out that the Ukrainian government was actively blocking the efforts of various African nations to get their students out.[/quote]

Please.  This thing was less surprising than Hitler's blitzkreig into Poland. Would I stay in Kyviv with Putin when Putin was massing over 100,000 Russian troops  on Ukraine's borders, note plural, 3 pronged prep for a blitzkreig.  If a non-Ukrainian student in Kyiv where would I have thought those tanks could possibly be going from Belarus?   Spain?  Tanks and military vehicles ready to roll in. Hot conflict near Donetsk since 2014.  February 17 was Kennedy Center cancellation day on the Russian Mariinsky.  No big costumes and sets like it carted to Germany in December 2021.

Why didn't the African students leave earlier?  In any event the ones that get out should have their accommodations paid for by their own government or out of their personal money - same for travel back to their own countries.  https://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-60555650

I see. So, Ukrainians did shove Africans, Indians, Roma, and Middle Eastern students off trains and detain them at the border. But that’s OK in the casr of the African students because it’s the Africans’ fault for not leaving sooner.

I’m sure you agree then that the Ukrainians left in Kyiv also deserve whatever they get for not leaving sooner. Right?[/quote]

No one deserves what is being done to Kyiv and those students should be allowed out.  Should they get priority treatment over any who could not get out before?  No.  And yes they should have left.  Nigeria is flying people out who got across borders https://www.france24.com/en/live-news/20220302-nigeria-to-airlift-hundreds-stranded-by-ukraine-crisis[/quote]
