Ukrainian border guards patrol along the Ukraine-Romania border near the west Ukrainian village of Yablunitsa February 5, 2009. Thousands of would-be immigrants from India, Afghanistan, China, Iraq, Somalia, Chechnya and Georgia have begun to choose the “easy” route to Europe – through Ukraine’s Carpathian mountains. Either duped by their smugglers into thinking Ukraine is Romania or Hungary or dumped in a Ukrainian forest, many migrants end their thousands of dollars-worth trips to Europe in Ukraine.
