Angi Mlyn (Angi mill)

Angi Mlyn, a Roma settlement in Michalovce, has largely changed its owner. The town decided to solve the problem with the non-payers by selling off the buildings in which they live. A new owner bought them and their inhabitants, which caused outrage in Slovakia. In the past, the authorities have tried to resolve disagreements with a segregation wall between the settlement and the city. Ignoring the Roma issue in Slovakia often leads to non-European solutions.
