Birdland, Neuburg 2011 is a live album by pianist Cecil Taylor and drummer Tony Oxley. It was recorded at the Birdland Jazz Club in Neuburg an der Donau, Germany in November 2011, and was released in 2020 by Fundacja Suchaj! Records.
The album was one of two that were produced from recordings that Tony Oxley found in his personal archives in 2020, the other being Being Astral and All Registers Power of Two.
Reception
Michael Rosenstein, in a review for Point of Departure, stated "One can hear Taylor working through his 'unit structures,' spontaneously delving into his language of malleable clusters, fluid harmonic constructions, and vigorous sense of flow. Oxley locks right in as an active colleague, finding a gripping balance to Taylor's thrusts and parries, jointly moving toward unequivocal resolution... Taylor didn't perform or record much in his later years, so this document is welcome, particularly as it captures the two musicians at the top of their game."
In a review for Stereogum, Phil Freeman wr |
ote "This duo set... features both men at the top of their game. Oxley's particular contribution what makes him unlike any other drummer, in free jazz or otherwise is his crisp use of cymbals and small toms that sound like he's playing a collection of tuned plastic buckets. He cuts right through Taylor's tidal waves of piano, keeping pace with him at all times and offering compelling counternarratives. The recording, courtesy of German radio, is impossibly clean and detailed; you can literally hear Taylor's piano bench creaking during many sections. This is an essential document for any Taylor fan."
Derek Taylor, writing for Dusted Magazine, commented "A Cecil Taylor concert isn't context conducive to conversation or inattention. Allowing one's mind to wander isn't a luxury to indulge in lest the sequential intricacies of the ensuing architectures become obfuscated. Even within the accepted degree of unspoken decorum, the German assemblage distinguishes itself in its collective engagement. Taylor and Oxley |
reciprocate with an unbroken, animated dialogue riddled with elaborations and instigations. The minutes evaporate, eventually adding up to an approximate hour that feels much shorter in mental sum. A musical alliance forged three decades earlier on a different German stage remains indisputably intact."
In a review for The Whole Note, Ken Waxman remarked "Taylor was 82 at this gig, yet displayed no loss of interpretative power. Paradoxically in fact, his playing is more adventurous and masterful than on his first LP in 1956. Like a latecareer interpretation by Rubinstein or Horowitz, this CD is both defining and definitive."
A review at the Marlbank web site stated "It's a reminder once again how remarkable Taylor's sound was, how in alliance with drummer Tony Oxley in a setting that emphasises the power he exerted at the piano and once again how uncompromising his approach was. Full of an intrepid sense of adventure and a sense of freedom where he can do anything he wants to Taylor teases out the tiniest p |
hrase to expand his improvisations into an infinity and the album has a unity to it, Oxley's free flowing multidirectional style swirling and rising behind him in a thrilling combination."

The 14521453 mystery eruption is a volcanic eruption that took place in the 1450s.
In Antarctic and Greenland ice cores, a major eruption or series of eruptions is revealed as a spike in sulfate concentration, showing that the release in form of particles was higher than any other eruption since. Also, analysis of the ice cores pinpointed the event to late 1452 or early 1453. The volume of expelled matter is more than six times larger than that of the 1991 eruption of Mount Pinatubo and would have caused a volcanic winter, a severe cooling of the entire planet the following three years. The link between the sulphur spike and the Kuwae caldera is questioned in a 2007 study by Kroly Nmeth, et al. proposing the Tofua caldera as an alternative source candidate.
Climatic consequences of 14521453 event
The 14521453 ruption has been linked with the second pulse of the Little Ice Age, which had started two centuries earlier with the Samalas eruption and other three unidentified eruptions.
A study by Dr Kevin Pang |
of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory drew on evidence found in tree rings, ice cores and in the historic records of civilizations in Europe and China. Oak panels of British portrait paintings had abnormally narrow rings in 145355.
In Sweden, grain tithes fell to zero as the crops failed. Bristlecone pines of the Western United States show frost damage in 1453. The growth of European and Chinese trees was stunted in 145357.
Mexican codices describe autumn frosts in 1453 that affected agriculture throughout central Mexico.
According to the history of the Ming Dynasty in China in the spring of 1453, "nonstop snow damaged wheat crops". Later that year, as the dust obscured the sunlight, "several feet of snow fell in six provinces; tens of thousands of people froze to death".
Early in 1454, "it snowed for 40 days south of the Yangtze River and countless died of cold and famine". Lakes and rivers were frozen, and the Yellow Sea was icebound out to from shore.
The eruption occurred just before the Fall of Consta |
ntinople, the last bastion of the oncemighty Byzantine Empire. The Ottoman Turks, led by Sultan Mehmed II, laid siege to the city on 5 April 1453 and conquered it on 29 May 1453. Pang found mention of the volcano's aftereffects in chronicles of the city's last days. Historians noted that the city's gardens, that spring, produced very little. On the night of 22 May 1453, the moon, the symbol of Constantinople, rose in dark eclipse, fulfilling a prophecy of the city's demise. On 25 May 1453, a thunderstorm burst on the city "It was impossible to stand up against the hail, and the rain came down in such torrents that whole streets were flooded". The next day, on 26 May 1453, the whole city was blotted out by a thick fog, a condition that is unknown in that part of the world in that month.
When the fog lifted that evening, "flames engulfed the dome of the Hagia Sophia, and lights, too, could be seen from the walls, glimmering in the distant countryside far behind the Turkish camp to the west", historians noted. |
Residents of the city thought the strange light was from reflection from a fire set by the Turkish attackers. Pang said, however, that the "fire" was an optical illusion by the reflection of intensely red twilight glow by clouds of volcanic ash high in the atmosphere. Many such false fire alarms were reported worldwide after the 1883 eruption of Krakatoa in Indonesia.
Pang said, "I conclude that Kuwae erupted in early 1453.... The residual volcanic cloud could have made the apocalyptic June 1456 apparition of the Comet Halley look 'red' with a 'golden' tail, as reported by contemporary astronomers".

Release
On 1 May 2015, coincidng with Ajith's birthday, Anirudh reported to social media, that the introduction song and theme music for the film has been completed.

The theme track of the film is rumoured to be titled "Verithanam" which was proved untrue. The album featured songs recorded by Shruti Haasan, and Punjabirapper Badshah, i |

Reception
Reviewing for The Times of India, Sharanya CR wrote "After giving a hit album like Naanum Rowdy Dhaan, Anirudh effortlessly changes his game in this mass album." Behindwoods gave the album, a rating of 2.75 out of 5 saying "Anirudh serves it hot for Ajith fans!" Milliblog reviewed it as a "punchy" and "likeable commercial soundtrack." Indiaglitz gave a rating of 3 out of 5 and stated the album as "Modern", "youthful" and "energetic". In contrast, Bollywoodlife.com gave 2.5 out of 5 stars and stated the album as "okayish", while India.com rated the same and opined that "the album is |
a let down and the four songs and the theme fail to meet expectations." Reviewing for Moviecrow, Ramesh S Kannan who gave a rating of 2.5 out of 5 stated that "Anirudh has got mired into an unimpressive set of tunes with occasional highs in terms of orchestration. Overall, songs don't do justice to the high expectations or the legacy of the immensely innovative composer."

The 2022 Italian local elections will be held on a weekday between 15 April to 15 June, with a second round to be held two weeks later. Elections will take place in 977 out of 7,904 municipalities, 26 of which are provincial capitals. Mayors and city councils will be elected for the ordinary fiveyear terms, lasting till 2027.
Voting system
The voting system is used for all mayoral elections in Italy in the cities with a population higher than 15,000 inhabitants. Under this system, voters express a direct choice for the mayor or an indirect choice voting for the party of the candidate's coalition. If no candidate receives 50 of votes during the first round, the top two candidates go to a second round after two weeks. The winning candidate obtains a majority bonus equal to 60 of seats. During the first round, if no candidate gets more than 50 of votes but a coalition of lists gets the majority of 50 of votes or if the mayor is elected in the first round but its coalition gets less than 40 of the valid votes, t |
he majority bonus cannot be assigned to the coalition of the winning mayor candidate.
The election of the City Council is based on a direct choice for the candidate with a maximum of two preferential votes, each for a different gender, belonging to the same party list the candidate with the majority of the preferences is elected. The number of the seats for each party is determined proportionally, using D'Hondt seat allocation. Only coalitions with more than 3 of votes are eligible to get any seats.

Ben Lewis is a British historian and translator specialising in German political thought between 1871 and 1945. He has a particular interest in the disputed legacy of European social democracy and is known for Englishlanguage translations of the works of Karl Kautsky, one of the leading theoreticians of German social democracy.
Education
Lewis was born in South Wales, studying German at Sheffield and Bonn. He has taught German grammar, language, translation, politics and history at the University of Sheffield, the University of Huddersfield, the Open University and Kings College London. His PhD research at Sheffield focused on historian and philosopher Oswald Spengler and is set to be published in book form in July 2022.
Career and research
Lewis collections of articles dealing with the history of European social democracy and communism, including Clara Zetkin Letters and Writings with Mike Jones; Kautsky on Colonialism with Mike Macnair; and Zinoviev and Martov Head to Head in Halle with Lars T Lih. Lew |
is sole editor of Karl Kautsky on Democracy and Republicanism.
Lewis has a particular standpoint on the legacy of Kautsky and the relative disdain shown by the contemporary left towards his and work. Lewis partly follows the ideas of the historian Lars T Lih in stressing that VI Lenins denunciation of the renegade Kautsky in 1918 counterposed him to his earlier record when he was a Marxist. For Lewis, the pre1914 Kautsky, embodied the continuation of Marxism as it became a historical reality for millions of people. Lewis sees three sources for the latterday leftwing and academic ignorance of Kautsky the Soviet Union and former Eastern Blocs bastardization of Marxism and a smallerscale Trotskyist copy; Western procapitalist Cold War historiography; and the neoHegelian interpretation of Marxism.

6272 Tay Street is an historic row of buildings in Perth, Scotland. Designed by local architect John Young, the building is Category B listed, dating to 1881. Standing on Tay Street, the building was originally the home of the Perthshire Society of Natural Science Museum, constructed in memory of Sir Thomas Moncreiffe, 7th Baronet, a past president of the society. The museum housed two exhibits a local or regional collection which contained a collection of the animals, plants and rocks to be found in Perthshire and the basin of the Tay and The Type or Index Museum, which illustrated the main types of animals, plants and rocks.
The museum was extended in 1895 by John Young's son, George Penrose Kennedy Young.
In 1902, the museum and its collection were given to the town council. The museum closed in 1934, and its artefacts moved to Perth Museum and Art Gallery on nearby George Street.
The building subsequently became a Masonic hall. A Masonic insignia is carved into the doorpiece.

Abraham Thomas Bradbury April 4, 1902 November 14, 1992 was an American architect best known for his work in Atlanta during the mid1900s. During this time, he designed many buildings for the government of Georgia around the Georgia State Capitol. His most famous work is arguably the Georgia Governor's Mansion, located in the Buckhead district of the city. While many of his works tended to be in the modernist style, the mansion is a noted example of Greek Revival architecture in Georgia. According to the New Georgia Encyclopedia, he was "perhaps the most prominent architect of government buildings in the midtwentieth century".
Biography
Early life
Abraham Thomas Bradbury was born in Atlanta, Georgia, on April 4, 1902, to Abraham Bradbury, a contractor, and Hannah Marco. As a young adult, Bradbury studied architecture at the Georgia School of Technology Georgia Tech. From 1921 to 1923, while still a student, he worked for the Atlantabased architectural firm of Robert and Company. In 1923, he completed his e |
ducation at the school and received a certificate. Following this, he moved to Florida, following fellow architect John Llewellyn Skinner, who had served as the head of architecture at the school from 1923 to 1925 before moving to Florida. While Bradbury had hoped to establish an architectural practice in Miami, a hurricane in 1926 prevented him from doing so.
In 1927, Bradbury found work with the firm of Warren, Knight, and Davis in Birmingham, Alabama. By 1930, Bradbury was living in Chattanooga, Tennessee, but he returned to Atlanta in the early 1930s to study law. In 1933, he was admitted to the Georgia Bar Association. In 1934, he returned to work for Robert and Company, and in 1935 he worked for a short time with the firm Hentz, Adler Schutze. During the mid1930s, he cofounded the firm of Constantine and Bradbury, though this firm was dissolved in 1939. During this time, Bradbury designed the State Office Building, a government building located near the Georgia State Capitol. Throughout his career, Br |
adbury would work extensively on commissions for government buildings in the city. Also around this time, in 1936, Bradbury married Janette Lane, who was the chair of the board of trustees for the Atlanta Civic Ballet. Additionally, Lane had both a bachelor's and a master's degree in law. The couple would have three children Janette Lane, Lynda Lane, and Thomas Lane. Bradbury would later remarry. In 1939, he established his own firm as A. Thomas Bradbury, Architect. Following a brief period in 1942 when the firm became Bradbury and Stockman, by 1943 the firm had been renamed to A. Thomas Bradbury and Associates.
Modernist architecture
Going into the 1940s, Bradbury was a strong embracer of modernist architecture, with many of his buildings from this period forward being built in that style. In 1954, Bradbury and Associates were contracted to design the Agriculture Building and the Law and Justice Building for the government of Georgia, with noted Georgiabased artist Julian Hoke Harris providing some sculpt |
ural ornamentation for the latter. Throughout the decade, his firm would design several more buildings for other governmental departments around the capitol in the modernist style, with a notable exception being the building for the Georgia Department of Transportation, which was built in a Bauhausinspired international style. From the 1950s through the 1960s, Bradbury designed six government buildings in the area, with their modernist style contrasting with the BeauxArts style of the capitol building. In 1957, he served as the lead architect for a renovation project to the capitol building itself. Discussing the style of these buildings, architecture critic Robert M. Craig stated that the "prevailing spirit" of the government buildings "was increasingly abstract, a faceless bureaucracy of officialdom deriving its architectural dress from a reduction of building form to colorless wall plane". Also during the 1950s, Bradbury pushed for changes to Georgia Tech's architectural department, specifically regarding |
its hiring of certain architectural firms. As a result, Bradbury became the lead architect behind several new projects at his alma mater, and in the following decades his firm would design academic buildings throughout the southeastern United States, arguably most notably the Georgia Mental Health Institute at Emory University.
Georgia Archives and the Georgia Governor's Mansion
Going into the 1960s, Bradbury would design two of his most notable works a building for the Georgia Archives and a new Georgia Governor's Mansion. Bradbury began working on the former in 1962 as an extreme example of modernist architecture. The resulting building, completed in 1965, has been described by the New Georgia Encyclopedia as a "monumental boxonpedestal". A 2011 article in Curbed Atlanta called the "monolithic building" a "modernist masterpiece", while architecture critic Robert M. Craig criticized the building and its overall boxshape as "an elemental form, but a boring one as well". On the other hand, the Georgia Gover |
nor's Mansion in Buckhead was designed in the Greek Revival style, modeled after the plantation house Tara from the film Gone with the Wind. The difference in architectural style from Bradbury's normal modernist style made him an odd choice for architect, and according to Curbed Atlanta, the archives building and mansion "present a fascinating dichotomy in architectural styles coming from one man". Work on the mansion lasted from 1964 to 1967.
Later life
In 1978, after 35 years of working through his own firm, Bradbury sold the firm and retired. He died in Atlanta on November 14, 1992.

Production
The documentary details the rise and fall of the Horn Hardart automats. Director Lisa Hurwitz said she was inspired to create the documentary while sitting in an automat during her college days. The f |
ilm features an original song titled "At the Automat" written and performed by Mel Brooks.
Release
The film premiered at the Telluride Film Festival on September 2, 2021. It was released in the United States on February 18, 2022, by A Slice of Pie Productions.
Reception
Box office
In the United States and Canada, the film earned 13,917 from the Film Forum theater in its opening weekend. It made 15,013 from three theaters in its second weekend.
Reception
The Hollywood Reporters Stephen Farber wrote, "Hurwitz supplements the talking heads with tasty archival footage and sharp graphics. Her film is sleek and unpretentious. It wins us over with humor and a pointed touch of melancholy." Varietys Owen Gleiberman said the film "taps into so many resonant aspects of what America used to be that to watch it is to be drawn into an enchanting and wistfully profound timetripping reverie." Writing for The New York Observer, Rex Reed said it "gets to the core of the Automat's significance, cutting to the core of it |
s social impact on New York and the changing world we live in." The New Yorkers Richard Brody said the best part of the film was "its blend of social and intellectual history with its anecdotal historyits evocation of the links between intention, practice, and experience; its depiction of a largely lost aesthetic of daily life."

St Mark's relics, the purported remains of Saint Mark the Evangelist, are held in St Mark's Basilica in Venice, Italy.
Venice
'Translatio'
The relics of Saint Mark are recorded in Venice as early as the ninthcentury in both the will of Doge Giustiniano Participazio and the travelogue of a Frankish monk on return from a pilgrimage to the Holy Land. However, the oldest surviving written account of the , the transfer of the relics from Alexandria in Egypt to Venice, dates only to the eleventh century, although earlier writings evidently existed and were used as sources.
As narrated, a fleet of ten Venetian trading vessels seeks shelter in the Muslimcontrolled city of Alexandria during a storm. This is said to be 'by the will of God'; hence there is no intentional violation of the edict of Emperor Leo V that forbids commercial contact with the Muslims. In Alexandria, two of the Venetian merchants, Buono da Malamocco Metamaucum and Rustico da Torcello, go daily to pray at the tomb of Saint Mark, located in a |
church near the port, and there, they make the acquaintance of Theodore and Stauracius, a priest and monk respectively. Theodore, fearful for the dwindling Christian community under Islamic rule, makes it known that the Caliph AlMa'mun has ordered the demolition of the church in order to recover building materials for new mosques, and it is suggested that the body of the saint be safely removed to Venice. To avoid raising suspicion, the body is first substituted with the remains of Saint Claudia, which are present in the church. The relics, placed into a basket and covered in pork, are then successfully smuggled past the Muslim customs officials and embarked on the Venetians' ship, which is preserved from shipwreck during the voyage by Saint Mark who appears and warns the sailors of the imminent danger. Other miracles occur, confirming the authenticity of the relics, until finally the ship arrives in Venice where the body is received by the Bishop of Olivolo and then taken in solemn procession to the Doge.
|
Independently of the pious inventions, the overall narration serves to justify the right of Venice to possess the relics. It simultaneously affirms the primacy of the Venetian church, the rightful successor of the Patriarchate of Aquileia, even over the ancient metropolitan see of Alexandria. As Buono and Rustico declare, evoking the tradition that Mark preached in northern Italy, the Venetians are the "firstborn sons" of the Evangelist. The translation of the relics to Venice is therefore a return of Mark to his rightful resting place.
Donald Nicol explained this act as "motivated as much by politics as by piety", and "a calculated stab at the pretensions of the Patriarchate of Aquileia." Instead of being used to adorn the church of Grado, which claimed to possess the throne of Saint Mark, it was kept secretly by Doge Giustiniano Participazio in his modest palace. Possession of Saint Mark's remains was, in Nicol's words, "the symbol not of the Patriarchate of Grado, nor of the bishopric of Olivolo, but of |
the city of Venice." In his will, Doge Giustiniano asked his widow to build a basilica dedicated to Saint Mark, which was erected between the palace and the chapel of Saint Theodore Stratelates, who until then had been patron saint of Venice.
'Praedestinatio'
With the also the possession of Saint Mark's relics by Venice is further legitimized, in this case as the fulfillment of a divine plan. Traceable to Martino da Canal's thirteenth century , the legend in its definitive form narrates that Saint Mark, after his mission to northern Italy and the evangelization of Aquileia, returns to Rome. Passing through the Venetian Lagoon, he beaches his boat for the night, and he has a vision on the very site of the future city of Venice in which an angel appears, greeting him "Peace to you Mark, my Evangelist" . A prophecy follows announcing that his body will one day find rest in Venice and that it will be venerated by a virtuous and pious people who will build a glorious and eternal city.
'Inventio'
The also |
confirms the special bond between Saint Mark and the Venetians. The legend concerns the rediscovery of the body at the time of the reconstruction of the church in the eleventh century. Although it is found no earlier than Martino da Canal's thirteenthcentury , it may derive from the actual public exposition of Saint Mark's relics prior to their entombment in the new crypt. As narrated, the body of Saint Mark is hidden to prevent theft during work on the church, and after years all knowledge of its hiding place, known only to the Doge and a few trusted officials, is lost. Finally, after three days of fasting and prayer, an earthquake breaks open a pillar, revealing the body, which in later variations reaches out to the pious Venetians.
Alexandria
The Coptic church believes that the head of Saint Mark remains in a church named after him in Alexandria, and parts of his relics are in Saint Mark's Coptic Orthodox Cathedral, Cairo. Every year, on the 30th day of the month of Paopi, the Coptic Orthodox Church celeb |
rates the commemoration of the consecration of the church of Saint Mark, and the appearance of the head of the saint in the city of Alexandria. This takes place inside St Mark's Coptic Orthodox Cathedral in Alexandria.
In June 1968, Pope Cyril VI of Alexandria sent an official delegation to Rome to receive a relic of Saint Mark from Pope Paul VI. The delegation consisted of ten metropolitans and bishops, seven of whom were Coptic and three Ethiopian, and three prominent Coptic lay leaders.
The relic was said to be a small piece of bone that had been given to the Roman pope by Giovanni Cardinal Urbani, Patriarch of Venice. Pope Paul, in an address to the delegation, said that the rest of the relics of the saint remained in Venice.
The delegation received the relic on June 22, 1968. The next day, the delegation celebrated a pontifical liturgy in the Church of Saint Athanasius the Apostolic in Rome. The metropolitans, bishops, and priests of the delegation all served in the liturgy. Members of the Roman papal |
delegation, Copts who lived in Rome, newspaper and news agency reporters, and many foreign dignitaries attended the liturgy.

The 2022 Ukrainian refugee crisis is a large movement of people from Ukraine during the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine. It began with the initial invasion of Russian troops on 24 February 2022. Even before the invasion, several European countries were preparing to take in refugees.
Hundreds of thousands fled in the first few days after the attack. Most have found refuge in neighboring countries west of Ukraine Poland, Hungary, Moldova, Romania and Slovakia. Many of those affected are seeking refuge in the homes of relatives who live abroad. The European Union and individual countries have announced that they will be open to Ukrainians so that refugees do not have to go through an asylum procedure. Railroad companies in several states such as Poland and Germany allow Ukrainian refugees to travel by train free of charge.
Legal
Officials of the European Union and individual states have discussed invoking the Temporary Protection Directive for the first time in its history so that the refugees do not have to |
go through the standard European Union asylum procedure. Railway companies in several countries, including Germany and Austria, are allowing Ukrainian refugees to travel by train for free.
Numbers
Figures on people fleeing Ukraine can change rapidly and are often only estimates. Travels from country to country are not necessarily registered officially. Ukrainians can travel to some countries in Europe without a visa. They may be allowed to stay in the country for an extended period, such as 90 days, without special permission. Elsewhere, they must apply for asylum. Moreover, crossing the border into a country does not mean that people will stay in that country permanently.
The United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs estimated on 27 February that there will be 7.5 million domestic refugees in two months in Ukraine. 18 million people are affected by the conflict and 12 million people will need health help. Up to four million people are fleeing before the war.
At the United Nation |
s Refugee Conference, on Sunday, 27 February 2022 it was announced that since the war over 368,000 people from Ukraine have fled. With more than 600,000 refugees believed to have fled Ukraine to neighboring countries as of 1 March 2022, the United Nations Refugee Agency UNHCR feared the situation could degenerate into "Europe's largest refugee crisis this century".
Accommodations and aid
The cofounder of Airbnb and two other officials sent letters to European leaders of nations that share a border with Ukraine offering the companies support in housing refugees temporarily. The scheme would be funded by donations made through the sites Refugee Fund and with support of hosts on the platform. Organizations such as UNICEF, the United Nations Refugee Agency, International Rescue Committee, United Ukrainian American Relief Committee and others began accepting monetary donations for helping refugees and those affected by the crisis. Others such as the Kyiv Independent began GoFundMe campaigns to raise money for s |
pecific causes or calls for physical items to be donated by an individual.

However, he called for Europe to coordinate the reception. Two days later, Development Minister Meryame Kitir announced that three million euros will be allocated for additional humanitarian aid to Ukraine.
Netherlands
Due to previous visa regulations with Ukraine, Ukrainians in search of safety can easily take the plane to the Netherlands and stay for three months. During this time, they basically have to find their own accommodation. Asylum centers are already "overcrowded." Moreover, Ukraine is still considered a safe country of origin, Petra Vissers summarized the legal situation on February 25. A further disadvantage for those affected, she said, is that life in the asylum center entails restrictions there is an obligation to register, people cannot cook for thems |
elves, and it is often difficult for children to attend school.

The federal government and the cantons will quickly provide accomodation for nine thousand people for refugees. According to SRF, all political parties are in favour of a quick admission of Ukrainian refugees.
Nonnative Ukrainian population
Claims of unequal treatment by border guards and other authorities by nonnative Ukrainian refugees were raised a few days into the crisis. Many foreigners claim to have been forced to the back of queues, with some alleging being beaten and clothing being torn by guards, however this is not a |
situation seen by all.
The Polish border police said that it helps all people fleeing Ukraine. Nationality does not matter. It is not true that Africans are being turned back for racist reasons. Representatives of Ghana and Somalia said they had no information about problems of their compatriots from Ukraine. The African Union, on the other hand, complained about related reports and called attempts to prevent Africans from crossing the border racist and not in line with international law.
