Sometimes, a wall is a good thing. Here in Ukraine we are looking forward for a wall to be erected between us and Russia. The sooner the better, the stronger the better. Some day democratic transformations will reach Russia too and that wall will be gladly torn down, but I seriously doubt that it will happen within the next 50 years.

I wonder how it is possible to compare these two...
One is about a country divided after a tragic war. The other one is about sovereignty.
I am not able to imagine how opening borders will help a country with huge unemployment problems (near 25%) make its people less poor. However I imagine how a white privileged artist from Germany could think such thing.

As for "sovereignty" - Europe sucked goods from Africa for hundreds of years... Now it is Europe's turn to be sucked...
