Action of protest of Chechen refugees in Austria
In the capital of the Austrian state of Styria, Graz, Chechen refugees organized protest actions against oppressions from the direction of the city authorities. As a correspondent of the Union of Caucasian Journalists reported, Chechen refugees are in a very poor position there. More than 300 people reportedly took part in the action.
The people broke up only after they had met with representatives of the authorities, who assured them they would investigate the situation and take measures to improve living conditions of the Chechen refugees. If they do not, the refugees promise to restart the actions.
