Nonprofit organization Oxfam, fighting poverty, rented the former home of Donald trump, is located in Queens to the refugees stayed there for the weekend. Currently, the house is available for rent on the Airbnb online to anyone willing to pay $725 a night.
This step is intended to draw public attention to the laws proposed by the President that do not allow migrants to re-settle in the United States.
The problem is that the ban on the entry of immigrants into the United States, which became one of the first political decisions of Mr. trump in the role of guarantor, temporarily suspended the refugee resettlement programme. In addition, last week there were reports that trump plans to reduce the number of refugees accepted by the United States twice.
The leadership of the organization Oxfam believes that the us government and the international community is not doing enough to provide refugees with decent living conditions. This was emphasized by the chief of the humanitarian Department Oxfam, Shannon Scribner in conversation with journalists of the Associated Press.
The time chosen for such aim quite successfully, as in new York at the weekend have started arriving world leaders to take part in the summit of the United Nations. With the same purpose, the Big Apple has deigned to visit the President trump.
Just home for the weekend settled four refugees. Ayman Ali, 22, came to the U.S. from Yemen in childhood. She said that the words and actions trump against refugees, opened her eyes and even insulted as a girl «have invested a lot in this country.»
Hassan al-Cahada, 41-year-old Syrian refugee, told the AP that he was afraid to leave the country, as it is not known whether he will be able to go back from the current prohibition on entry. The man advises the President to remember what he felt, sleeping in the bedroom of his former home. If Mr. trump will be able to reconnect with the child that he once was with his children with mercy and compassion, he will become a great man.
The house in which the tramp lived as a child appeared on Airbnb in August. Three-story mansion, built by the father of trump in 1940 in the Tudor style, is located Queens. In March, he was auctioned and sold for of 2.14 million dollars. The building is designed for 20 people. The house has five bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms.
