  1. Dont you face discrimination in your countries by your leaders? Bending down in silence.
    War. What did you expect: to be pampered?
    First kids and women, not strong boys how its in your countries.
    You remember ivorian crisis? Sudan? Etc.
    You remember your border men's behaviour?
    You know how in heavy traffic, drivers from your countries lose human face???
    Studs had enough time to flee. The country has been at war since 2014 but low fees took over.
    Blame monster putin…

  2. Wow. Even when they’re being attacked they still turn to discrimination. I’m not black but I hate what those officials are doing to them. I wish all Africans a much better future from this madness. Respect from the us

  3. Black men are cool when they or other men mistreat their women, but when they are being mistreated they want to speak out. BYEEEEEE. Y'all leave y'all women and communities to chase other men's women and live in their communities, y'all speak horridly about your women Infront of the world then expect real men to care about yall cowardly arse and come to your rescue?!?!?

  4. It's the way it works in war, it is not racist,
    Priority list goes something like this:
    1) women and Children Ukrainian citizens;
    2) old and disabled citizens;
    3) non-citizens (usually you have to go to your embassy or talk to your government);
    4) men of fighting age 18-60.
    Everyone knows if you are a foreigner in crisis you should contact your embassy, it is their own goverments fault if they can't get out, their governments should looking after their exit plan

  5. I understand it's not ALL Ukrainians that are being racist, it's primarily at the border. However, in wartime if people want to leave they should be able to leave! It is the Nazi/Stasi police blocking my African brothers and sisters. The PM has announced, "Africans are our friends let them pass", that gives me much concern because the police is regulating the evacuation. How can Ukraine ask for torture to stop, yet they are terrorizing their own citizens? You can't make this make sense! Africa must help repatriate Africans and NEVER return to Europe!

  6. They will not allow men to board while there is still women and children to board, I have seen hundreds on African women and children board trains and been let through, and taken care of at the border. Women and children first!

  7. Selfishness. Men who fled war zones to reach Europe in 2014 instead of fighting for their country finds the next generation want to leave ahead of Ukrainian women and children. You had the privilege to study in Ukraine and now you want to flee. Shame on you.

  8. Fake students, 95% are illegal migrant who pay Łukaszenko for fake Ukrainian documents …don t worry Polish border verify and sent back this trick guys.

  9. All African military age men need to stay in Ukraine and defend the country like Ukrainian men instead of fleeing like cowards. Why do you want to be treated like women and children? You are equal to Ukrainian men who are not allowed to leave and neither should you be allowed to leave. It is clear too many African background men commit too much crime unlike any other group once they settle in civilised countries. Therefore the nations of the world have washed their hands of them and do not want them in their countries.

  10. Don't expect any more help from foundational black Americans, after hearing Africans on social media pages saying terrible things about foundational black Americans? I went out to help with you guys after seeing Aficans being beat with whips at the Mexican border. That will NEVER happen again! Believe me most of us will never help you again, don't ask for it. 😄

  11. Keep in mind there are sick, injured, women, and children that take priority, and Ukrainians themselves have been waiting several days to evacuate. The L'viv train station is tiny and wasn't built for this. I won't say there's no racism whatsoever, but there's a war happening and just because someone thinks they're being mistreated doesn't necessarily mean they are. People don't go to study in countries they think are racist, so how convenient that it's suddenly a problem. This racial clickbait is getting old as shit and it's pathetic that news stations/channels expect this to generate clicks for them while people are dying to blatant war crimes. Some actual journalism would be nice too instead of believing whatever reports come out from someone who might want to cut in line and thinks they deserve special treatment.

  12. All diplomats and foreigners were asked to abandon the country weeks ago.. Unless you willing to stay on your own risk.. Don't blame others, please!
    Economical migration isn't a refuge from war!

  13. Hey, the racist card has been played too many times by Africans. Ukrainians put woman and children first, now if you actually spoke our language, you would hear police say “woman and children only” so do yourself a favour learn the fking language so you won’t have a problem.

  14. Of course woman and children are prioritised…the children don't know if the will se their daddys ever again Ukranien men are not allowed to leave the country…there are day long queues every border…its hard to be an ukranien child.
