Yesterday, in tweeting about Ukraine and Syria, I was deeply impressed with the comments of a young woman named Katia (@dietellewoods) in response to a rhetorical question I posed. She was, she informed me, a refugee Ukrainian law student from Kharkiv who was now in the
Czech Republic. After a considerable back and forth by DM, we ended up recording a conversation yesterday afternoon, which will be on the @lawfareblog Podcast tomorrow.
When people talk about there being more than a million refugees, understand that each of them has a story.
When people talk about there being more than a million refugees, understand that each of them has a story.
Each of them had to get out of somewhere. Each of them had a long way to go. Each of them is now displaced from their lives. Each of them left people behind about whom they are now worried.
These are real people.
