Can you blame them though really? Put yourself in their shoes and you have to start a new life somewhere else with kids in tow. Obviously you probably would choose Germany or UK or Sweden over Poland or Hungary where the job you can get pays more and the standard of living is higher. |
It's not just economic reason that drives people to choose Germany and UK over Eastearn Europe or Russia. I've never been to any Eastern European country, so I may be wrong. However I have Lithuanian, Latvian and Polish friends who told me that their countries are extremely racist and xenophobic. A counsin of my Lithuanian friend had moved to England a few years ago, after a few months here he returned to his country, because he couldn't stand black people. I know it's just one example, and I'm not saying that they're all racist and bad peolpe. But I think those wouldn't be good places to settle any refugees.
