All that OP had to do was to check for countries requiring a visa to enter EU. Ukraine just needs a passport. India and many African countries need a passport and a visa. It’s right there - in black and white.

“ According to Bagui Sylla, the Ukrainian border guards said they were merely following instructions from their Polish counterparts – a claim denied by officials in Warsaw. Anna Michalska, a spokesperson for the Polish border guards, said she had spent “the past two days denying such allegations”.
“I don’t know what is happening on the Ukrainian side of the border, but we let everyone in regardless of nationality,” she told FRANCE 24.
Polish officials confirmed that no visas were required to cross the border and that identity cards and passports would be accepted, even when expired”

I am pretty sure in the early hours and days of the invasion, Polish border guards were following the standard operating procedure that was in place for years. As the new emergency order tricked down from the top, I am pretty sure there were many hiccups.

Speaking as a brown person, the first 2 days, seeing the reports from Ukraine made me teary eyed when I read the articles. Then after the discrimination videos started making the rounds, I am just disappointed that people look at skin color in a crisis. One of the videos above shows the black woman trying to get in but denied and a white woman on the left is let through on the train.

The tweets by this person showing how news people are reacting puts things in perspective:

Good God, Americans are obsessed with trying to inject race into everything. These are the efforts by the Russians to try to sow discord by stoking something that is so sooooo minor compared to the rest of the ordeal.

It is scary how easily you people are duped by social media and the internet. Russian intelligence knows exactly the buttons to push in the west to stoke divisions. All Russians foment racial tensions with disinformation divide and conquer, or to divert attention away from the bigger picture.





The OP knows what he's doing. When asked if he has any condemnation for Russia, he's like "nahhh"

The irony - Maybe you should have checked the post history of the user who posted those threads before linking it here. The user is a Sunni Muslim with bias against India. Now, who is the sucker? LMAO

I worked with a lady who was 7 years old and walked across European countries during WWII with her Grandma trying to avoid rapes from the Russian soldiers.

I don't have a lot of sympathy for men of any color who are whining until all of the women, children and seniors are able to leave Ukraine that want to leave Ukraine.

The Russian Army is notorious for brutally raping village women and girls.


It would be nice if you had some sympathy for the black and brown women, not just the white women and children.

Do you have eyes? Can you see the black woman and her baby in the picture in the link?

Interesting that Ukraine gets to have that posture and the world community celebrates it but if other countries want a similar posture, people get mad.


Nobody wants to immigrate there. Throughout history it has been a country that people leave


Quite untrue.

What if those black people who were pushed behind had the Schengen visa? We would never know would we? They may have had it.

Same with Armenia. More Armenians live outside Armenia than in it. Yet, the country survived this long because Armenians love their country. It must be the same with Ukraine.
