This is Scottish Refugee Council head Sabir Zazai, who came to the country as a refugee from Afghanistan in 1999.
He's standing in sunny Edinburgh, with some of the 20 refugee women from Afghanistan who have just arrived on visas to study medicine at Scottish universities.
If this isn't nice, I don't know what is.
