The senior EU official for migration said on Monday that the situation is now ‘stable’ when it comes to refugee flows from Ukraine
The number of Ukrainians crossing into European Union countries has returned to levels from before Russia’s invasion and more people will be coming – and going – before school starts, the senior EU official for migration said on Monday.
“When it comes to the refugee flows, the situation now is stable. The crossings between the EU and Ukraine, the numbers are pre-war, pre-COVID level, so we are back to like a normal number of people crossing,” Home Affairs Commissioner Ylva Johansson told reporters. “I foresee that a lot of Ukrainians in the EU will take a decision before school starts – where to start school, in an EU member state or going back to Ukraine to start school there,” she said.
Johansson said the Czech Republic was the country with the highest number of Ukrainian refugees per capita, followed by Poland, Estonia, Lithuania, Bulgaria and Latvia.
