Ukraine Spring protests shook the residents of the town of Yahotyn in Kyiv, which opposed the location in temporary accommodation for refugees. In media reports available information on different arguments, the main ones were: "They are not of our faith," "Choose the jobs."

In fact, the item is going to open in Yagotin not the first such in Ukraine. For many years they exist in Odesa and Mukachevo. Temporary accommodation for Refugees (PTRB) - the institution open, in fact hostels which are subordinate to the State Migration Service. There are people who have received refugee status, the status of persons in need of additional protection or are in the process of obtaining these documents.

Rated location address temporary accommodation Odessa - Odessa directly, but in fact, this area is considered a suburb, the private sector. Local call it Chernomorka. To get to the center, it will take at least an hour, but the sea can be reached on foot. Around the point several private homes, resorts and lots of greenery.

 Although no limits to the movement of people, institution still surrounded by a fence. In the two buildings - administrative and dormitory where refugees live. Item located in the former kindergarten. Probably from the time are preserved playground. Now the site has become a truly international - there are kids playing around the world.

Fifty meters on a bench in front of several men sitting administration: AMRO from Palestine, Bahadur (name changed) from Tajikistan and Ali from Syria. In general, there live representatives of more than ten countries, including: Afghanistan, Ethiopia, Somalia, Mali, Gambia, Guinea, Pakistan, Ivory Coast, Sudan. Now living in Item 80 people, although it is designed for 200 Administration explains half the space repair and wanting now not so much.

 Today, give food packages, which is why at the housing administration crowded. This set gets all the inhabitants of Point once a month. It is only the most necessary - mainly cereals, flour and canned goods. But with the new year, according to the Cabinet of Ministers changed principle of calculating product - now the diet is in kilocalories. They consider the age and gender. The workers say that food packages have become much better. Added cheese, milk, butter, eggs and cream. But not all are refugees of the following month. This month, for example, a list that shows me AMRO, except for cereals and canned food, flour, condensed milk is a "chicken at home", cheese, butter, eggs.

- All the same, it would be better if we gave money for food and we can buy what we want - says AMRO.

- No zhaliysya - Bahadur pushes him aside with a mild rebuke.

Bahadur oldest of all, why allow yourself to make fun of Ali AMRO. Between them they speak Arabic. For Ali, it AMRO native and local Bahadur polyglot - knows only Arabic, and several foreign languages. He has 30 years of experience in journalism. According to him, at various times worked in five newspapers, information centers, on public television.

 Fighter for the truth

Bahadur invited me to visit. Climb onto the porch residential housing and turn left. Corridor microns and empty. Only at the door of the room are plastic shelves for shoes.

The first thing you feel crossing the threshold - the smell of fresh flowers, and a second wafting sounds of instrumental music. Every corner adds a piece to the puzzle of the individual owner: the left door improvised exhibition of pipes for smoking nearby - a sheaf of wheat and a large edition of "Kobzar". Immediately below the table with a laptop, from the bottom of the camera is the lens. He lives here with his wife. The children, who also arrived with him from Tajikistan, occupying the next room.

- Actually, my problem is that I always say what I think - says with a smile Bahadur. I have an idea, or even idea-fix - the freedom of my people from the Russian yoke. My country is dependent on Russia. Our management is a "farm", which is subject of. They are "squeezed" out of the country mass protest - youth, and she went to work in Russia rather than to change something at home.

 Just felt that this - his favorite topic, which he can talk for hours. Talking about the injustice of power, drawer pulls out a book page 300.

- This is my book. This philosophical essay about God articles on the topics of politics, economics. Issued in Tajikistan. I was not the last journalist in the country, the Internet can ask.

Interested. Google publishes many articles that mention the announcement indefinite hunger strike freelance writer. It was after he left the country. In Ukraine hit in early 2014. As he says, "Yanukovych fled from you, and I came." On past Bahadur says enthusiastically, and come closer to the present, the more pohmurniye. In point he and his family for about a year. Before we get here, they rented an apartment until there was a financial opportunity. Most of what he wants - a return home.

- I want to return to Tajikistan. There's every dog ??knows me. It is necessary to change lives. For children and wife. I now think of different options. I easily take back, but will be part of totalitarianism. Perhaps it will go and on. I fought for thirty years and received?

 Little Ukrainian

- What's your name? - Look at my big black eyes girl of seven. She speaks almost without an accent. Generally there are children translators for parents, especially mothers because cultural differences are often much less communicate with the outside world. On their shoulders rests the care of the family, which often happens in five-six children.

In Khadija - six. Two teenagers are already on the market porters in the evening hurry to engage in night school. One, Maria, is very small, it is not and two years, she was born already here in Ukraine.

 - Come into the room, the man speaks better than I - Khadija embarrassed smiles.

The family came from Afghanistan, Kabul. They belong to the Shia-Hazaras who brutally persecuted by the Taliban. Left the country back in 2008, when her father Khadija Taliban took hostage. They demanded a large ransom to save it and failed. First they tried to get in, but failed. We arrived in Ukraine.

Even now they are closely watching what is happening at home - in Afghanistan. Male Khadija print displays news from the Internet, which refers to the regular Taliban attacks.

- That this girl was only nine years old, and they did it - in photos horrific images of terrorist attacks and victims of attacks. The text handle the underlined words "Hazaras" and "Shiites".

Khadija husband can not work. It is typical for refugees disease - back problems. The only difference - it got her working as a loader on the market in Russia, not the "7-kilometer". Now loaders are his two sons. Morning work, and night study at night school.

 Comes little Mariam, in their hands - a pack of juice, which is now in the family received food packages.

- Do you have enough products that this issue?

- No - sadly smiling Khadija. Every month oatmeal, cereal, give them a lot, but the kids do not want to eat the same thing every day. We ourselves are buying potatoes, some vegetables.

Now the family is in the process of obtaining documents - or rather challenge the decision to refuse Ukraine to give them official status. What's over - no one knows. Mariam's father is a little up and puts to his knees:

- It - Ukrainian - says proudly - she was born here, and thus can receive citizenship.

Someone living in Point a few months, while others delayed for several years. One can not easily find work and adapt to new social and often and cultural environment, while others need this much longer. Some people are lucky to stumble on support and assistance, while others remain alone with the bureaucratic machine his new state. Refugees face the same problems as the citizens of Ukraine, but their solution is often given them several times harder.
