<p style="margin:0cm;margin-bottom:.0001pt;background:white"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;color:#373737">This is why foreign immigrants seem to fare better: there were many in Ukraine, about 75,000 students, from Africa, Asia
and Latin America. They too are fleeing together with the Ukrainian population, they too have only a backpack or a suitcase, but they have not "lost their lives", even if some have had to deal with episodes of racism during their journey.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;color:#373737">The majority of refugees are women and children, and for them, there is the added threat of trafficking. They come from a history - that of the Soviet world - in which they have learned
to distrust anything public or state-run; so they stay away from government-organized buses and this plays into the hands of traffickers, who approach and offer a ride in a private car.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;color:#373737;background:white">I have seen a Europe capable of putting aside closures and fears, capable of opening doors and borders, instead of building walls and fences.
I have seen Europeans capable of behaving again like the Good Samaritan, loading into cars and buses - no longer on a horse or a donkey - strangers found "half-dead" along the roads leading to the border. I pray that once this crisis is over, Europe and Europeans
will not turn back, but will remain open and welcoming!</span><o:p></o:p></p>
