A genuine humanitarian crisis is unfolding at the Salla checkpoint in the Kandalaksha district of the Murmansk region Presently, refugees on bicycles, including individuals from Syria, Yemen, and Somalia, are stranded there—dozens in number. They are unable to cross the border into Finland. The Governor of the region, Andrei Chibis, contends that European neighbors are artificially causing a traffic jam. Consequently, the Russian side has set up tents for heating and is providing migrants with hot meals. Andrei Chibis, Governor of the Murmansk region, remarked: “In any situation, it is crucial to maintain a humane approach. I hope that the Finnish authorities will also bear this in mind.“ Источник: Slavyangrad
