Borel and Haefliger asked in 1961  whether cycle classes on smooth projective complex varieties are smoothable, that is, belong to  the subgroup  generated by classes of smooth subvarieties. This was disproved for cycles of dimension greater than or equal their codimension. I will explain the proof of smoothability of cycles of dimension smaller than their  codimension (joint work with Kollár).
