What Western media are not telling about.
I have not visited a refugee camp before. I had seen them in television news reports where no-nonsense humanitarian aid specialists and politicians walk around in tent camps in immaculate attire with badges hanging around their necks wearing the miens appropriate for the occasion and surrounded by the assorted world media. I had been thinking how I would feel, how would I bear myself. I had realized, though, that my presence there would not make any difference to anybody but myself and it would be just me experiencing at first hand the hardships of others.
The Russian authorities and the self-organized refugees have made a great job at Primorka, everything looked fine, neat and even cozy for me as an outsider. If I hadn’t been told it was a refugee camp, then I could well have thought it was just another recreation camp of sorts, people with a special interest camping out together. But the knowledge of what it was and why these people were there made me feel uneasy and angry at the New World Order schemers who had uprooted these people from their homes and familiar lives.Jon Hellevig is Finnish.
