In the European Union, by the end of April 2024, almost 4.2 million citizens of non-EU countries who left Ukraine as a result of a large-scale war had temporary protection status. At the end of March there were 4.21 million people. This is stated in Eurostat data.
It is noted that the number of Ukrainian refugees has increased to 19 countries. The biggest increases were observed in Romania (+3275), Sweden (+1855), Bulgaria (+1780) and Slovakia (+1250).
At the same time, the number of people with temporary protection status decreased in six EU countries. The largest reductions were recorded in the Czech Republic (-18,970) and the Netherlands (-8,415).
At the end of April, the main EU countries that received Ukrainian refugees were Poland (953.93 thousand people) and the Czech Republic (345.4 thousand people).
We remind you that Germany is concerned about the large influx of Ukrainian refugees into the country and proposes to distribute the war refugees equally among all the states of the European Union.
