To be honest, many foreign men were acting like animals, trampling over women and children, has haven been seen on videos.

I understand their urge to get out the country but they should still respect women and children.

Even if your outrageous claim was true, it does not justify discrimination of foreign students fleeing a war zone!

Women and children first.

Your response makes no sense at all, given the first-hand accounts of discrimination from women in the linked article.

To add to what GP commented here [1], African and Asian students studying in Ukraine do not deserve to discriminated against by Ukrainians, irrespective of the current difficult circumstances.

Your claims are still unsubstantiated and even then, these students, bystanders in a foreign war, have a right to safe passage without harassment from Ukrainian border guards or civilians.

Stupid whining. There are reports of children who have walked days to reach the border because these convoys are just blocked. These cry babies were able to wait a little. I said women and children are the priority, which obviously means women with children first, if it this obvious thing was not understandable. This is very stressful situation and you should maintain your calm. When you loose it and start a tantrum, you are not treated well in such situations.

I'll just remind you that the source article cites accounts from African women who just happen to be students in Ukraine in the middle of this unfortunate conflict. The rest of your still unsubstantiated comments are not worth repeating.

If this is "stupid whining" then I don't see how we can engage in a civil discussion on a very valid topic. Have yourself a good evening/ day.
