ALT Text: "After fleeing a war, in desperation, and seeking refuge in Japan, why do I have to get down on my knees and say 'I apologize for inconveniencing you but I have nowhere else to go, please let me stay here', then get kicked and told 'Drop dead!'? A friend called the police, but my heart is in tatters. I want to go back to Ukraine." / "Warum muss ich, nachdem ich verzweifelt vor einem Krieg geflohen bin und in Japan Zuflucht gesucht habe, auf die Knie gehen und sagen: 'Ich bitte um Verzeihung, dass ich Ihnen Unannehmlichkeiten bereite, aber ich kann nirgendwo anders hin, bitte lassen Sie mich hier bleiben', um dann getreten zu werden während man mir sagt, ich solle 'sterben'? Eine Freundin hat die Polizei gerufen, aber mein Herz ist zerrissen. Ich will zurück in die Ukraine."
