| MK_ROMA_GR_14 Almost 30,000 Roma from Albania and Bulgaria came the last years in Greece. Just 3 km under Acropolis. Since 1998, one thousand Roma live in a slum settlement, in a private land, at Votanicos area, in Tavros municipality of Athens. The 600 children aged from babies to 15 years old, live under unhealthy conditions into the garbage-township where the Albanian Roma survive by stealing or collecting from the street-bins cables and other metal garbage into their slum. They burn the cables to sell the copper, creating a toxic cloud from dioxines totally cancerous that dances in the Athenian air. While shantytowns are less common in Europe, the growing influx of illegal immigrants have fueled shantytowns in cities commonly used as a points of entry into the EU, including Athens. Roma, steal the Pakistan and other Arab and south Asian illegal immigrants, as they cannot go and accuse Roma officially to the police stations///The legs of a child who stands on the top of a garbage heap in front of the slum
