Calvo said that at the moment "the situation is worrying" given that "the agreement to respect humanitarian corridors has not been fulfilled", something which is fundamental because otherwise "it is impossible to carry out an orderly evacuation".
The government delegate said that the collaboration with the Balearic government is extremely strong, and thanked the authorities for adding the Covid hotel to the shelters to take in refugees.
She also said that there are many families in the Balearics which will also house Ukrainian refugees in the face of the Russian invasion.
Calvo thanked the Balearics foir all of the solidarity which has been shown but she recommended that those who want to help Ukraine should do so by making donations to organisations such as Acnur or Médecins Sans Frontières.
"We have to organise ourselves well in order to be effective", she explained.
She said that it is "very legitimate and praiseworthy", for example, to donate food, but she considered that it is better to make donations directly to the associations for organisational reasons.

Funny how we react to Ukranians fleeing from a war, which we (rightfully so) invite with open arms. This in sharp contrast to Syrians, Jemenese an or Iraqies, who we put in camps and treat like shit. And they are all people. But race, colour and or religion still seems to make a lot of difference. Sad.
