and let people in. other countries further away haven t done as much. have you been very impressed with the east european countries and what they have been able to do with smaller budgets than spain, the u.k. and germany? yes, very especially with moldova. all of them helping a tremendous amount of people. we have seen the european union in brussels to accept any people coming from ukraine. in moldova, one of the poorest countries in europe, the number of refugees that have gone through moldova equals 10% of the moldovan population, which is a very small country and a very large part, 80% because they don t have refuge centers. there are very few refuge centers. they are being taken by the moldovan families. spain will expand and we will
naturally a small country like moldova is under a very strong pressure. about half a million refugees have entered and are moving on to romania but still a sizable 100,000 are still here in moldova, mainly being sheltered and being welcomed by the moldovan population here in their homes. also the people who are coming across the border are leaving their menfolk behind who are fighting in the army. many women, many children and also very many elderly, their pets coming over. but they are being greeted by and large by the moldovan population, which is very encouraging for us to see. indeed. but longer term you must have some concerns. if this war drags on and you have these refugee flows continue to flow across borders
