I'm not surprised that black folks were discriminated against while fleeing Ukraine.

 

The real question is why are they living in a country that is 99.9% white.

 

More importantly, why is gas over $4 per gallon in the US. 

 

People are being killed and fleeced out of their money over some geopolitical BS.😎

Why Blacks chose Ukraine as their home

If you ever read words from the interviews of Black Africans who were attending universities in Ukraine, you will understand why they went to this country.
 

The BBC reported that Ukraine was home to over 76,000 foreign students. This was according to Ukraine government data from 2020.
 

Nearly a quarter of the students were from Africa, with the largest numbers coming from Nigeria, Morocco and Egypt. India easily accounts for the highest portion with over 20,000 students, the BBC said.

But Ukraine's education ministry revealed that there were more than 16,000 African students in the country, according to Reuters. 
 

The students - studying medicine, engineering and business - are an important part of the country's (Ukraine's) economy, according to the BBC.

So, in seemed the presence of foreign students in Ukraine was symbiotic. 

Many Black African students lived in Kyiv, the capital and explained that incidents of racism were rare. They also said the schools were cheaper in Ukraine than elsewhere.

However, a military invasion of a country turns people fearful, desperate and incredibly selfish. That's no excuse, but those are also facts.
 

 

 

Back in 1957, the former USSR recruited Africans and financed their education during Africa's decolonization. The USSR used it as an opportunity to promote a positive image and to counterbalance anti-USSR Western propaganda.

 

When the USSR collapsed in 1991, they stopped recruiting African students and giving them  generous scholarships.

 

While Ukraine doesn’t offer African students the same financial incentives it did in the past, it's easier to get a visa there and it's cheaper than Great  Britain and the United States.

 

Still, being a black student in a 99.9% white country does not exempt them from xenophobic and anti-immigration attitudes;  stares and racist attacks. 

 

IOW, European countries do not welcome black folks with open arms. There are always strings attached. Then, there's a cultural component too. 😎
