00:00We were sitting together, we took our passports, and we started to take interviews with everyone.

00:46So, I mean, you saw your visa physically, that everything is okay, that everything is correct.

00:52We have a physical visa now.

00:57Then, we took it from one room, all the deportees were sitting there.

01:01Almost, when we were 7-8 members, we didn't come, we were 16-17 plus.

01:06In which, 7-8 places were to sleep, the rest of the rest were to sit.
