Two teenagers were arrested in the attacks last week on Romanians who live in Belfast, Northern Ireland. The teenagers are 15 and 16 and both were charged with provocative conduct and the 15 year old faces charges of intimidation. The arrsts are from last weeks attacks on more than 100 Romanians. Their windows were smashed at their homes. The familes took shelter at the Queen's University campus until the issue was resolved. The Romanian ambassador met with Northern Ireland First Minister Peter Robinson, Deputy First Minister Martin McGuinness and Belfast Lord Mayor Naomi Long. Most of the Romanains just wanted to return home.
The article was well written and it hit all the points briefly. The only thing I didn't like was the end when the article states that most Romanians are marked by poverty and came there for low paying jobs. It makes they sound non-important.
