Young Swedish female volunteers who had come to look after “children” were deceived and confronted with Afghan men, some of whom were 35 years old!
Mira (then 14, now 25) testifies….
Mira Aksoy, a Swede who was 16 in 2014 and had the best of intentions, tells how she, like other young people, was trapped and sacrificed by a hypocritical and criminal humanitarian system.
When I was 14 years old, I volunteered to look after young children.
I remember that during the training day they didn’t want to give any details. It was 2014 and I was 16 years old. I had been recruited for the Red Cross’ new project to help unaccompanied refugee children integrate in Sweden. But no one had told us that the children were grown men.
We had gathered at the Red Cross premises in Norrköping. Me and several girls I knew from my school would act as supervisors and be trained by the Red Cross to make the volunteer project as successful as possible. The project was specifically aimed at Swedish high school-aged youth – but all the information was scarce.
The focus was partly on the fact that many children were sad after losing their families in the war, and partly on how to distribute the budget we had received over a series of meetings. The meetings were to consist of homework help and fun activities like baking and playing football. I was attracted to the idea of helping young children learn Swedish quickly and giving them some security in a new country without the presence of their parents. This was an important task.
The Red Cross trainers raised the issue of not having private relationships with refugee children as this could jeopardise the project. I asked for examples and was told that we should not share our phone numbers with them or add them as friends on Facebook so that they would not get the impression that we wanted to get to know them better. Only later did I realise that these were romances and stalking. In fact, such things had happened in other cities as part of the project.
It was the time for the first meeting. We were five or six girls who met in town after school to go shopping together. Oatmeal, cocoa, sugar and butter – these were the ingredients to make chocolate balls.
Having a classic Swedish fika [snack] with the orphans seemed like the ideal way to start. After all, all children love sweets!

Arrival at the centre
Full of anticipation, we took the bus to the asylum centre located on the outskirts of the city. We went to one of the corridors and were let in by the staff. When we arrived in the communal kitchen, we were greeted by a dozen adult Afghan men. There were no children there. Just a few men. No one wanted to help make chocolate balls. The girls cooked and the men joined in the meal. The meal mainly smacked of immigration issues and lack of understanding. Then we went to another building for homework help. But the men didn’t want to learn Swedish – and one got so upset that we had to call the staff.
When we finally left, we did not talk about the fact that the pitiful orphans turned out to be men up to 35 years old. On the bus that took us back to the city, we sat in silence. I tried to reassure myself that it was a good deed and at the same time suppress the feeling that it was wrong. But I couldn’t. I withdrew from the project, even though a representative of the Red Cross had called and pestered me.
The Red Cross had promised us teenagers that we could help single children. Instead, they sent us alone to a centre with adult men from one of the most misogynistic cultures in the world who pretended to be children. In reality, however, we were the children. Teenage girls who were supposed to help grown men with their homework. Eight years later, I still wonder what the intentions of the organisation were. The adults in charge were aware that they were lying to us.
Mira complains
Afghan men were allowed to go to school with Swedish children. They were allowed to compete with Swedish children in various sports. Politicians, the media and the entire public complied in the name of charity, and even today it is all swept under the carpet. Some still stick to this lie. No one wants to take responsibility for the risks they exposed Swedish youth to by turning a blind eye to the truth. It is we, the young people, who have been sacrificed for the lie of the “unaccompanied refugee children”. We must hold those responsible accountable so that this never happens again.Samnytt
