If you're old like me it's just the latest in a long line. Beijing used to be Peking. Kolkata used to be Calcutta.

Apparently these are 13 million dollars a piece. Expensive loss for the Russias just because some dick head tried to drive it through a field

I'm imagining it may also be hard to provide some of the proof needed when you're fleeing a war zone or being bombed. Hold on, will just grab the wedding certificate and bills in our joint name......
We just need an open door policy for a period of time, then worry about the rest later. In the main, the vast majority of these people will want to return home.
