ROMANIA-ITALY-IMMIGRATION-ROMA

TO GO WITH AFP STORY IN FRENCH BY MIHAELA RODINA
Roma gypsys houses are seen in the village of Buzescu, 110 kms west orom Bucharest, 13 November 2007. Unlike other residents of Buzescu, who are forced by poverty to immigrate, mainly to Spain, the gypsy community displays wealth and prosperity. Though discreet about the origin of their wealth, much of it comes trading metals, like copper or aluminium.
