Most Ukrainians in Poland are ready to return after the war - Bodnar

Despite the war, the loss of homes and life in emigration, the vast majority of Ukrainians who have found temporary shelter in Poland dream of returning home. This was stated by the Ambassador of Ukraine to Poland Vasyl Bodnar in an interview with Radio Liberty.

According to him, about 70% of Ukrainians who were forced to go abroad through a full -scale invasion of Russia, declare their willingness to return to Ukraine, as soon as appropriate conditions.

“You will not return these people by force. This is their decision. The question of creating conditions, ”the diplomat said.

The diplomat noted that most people left their own will, but because of military circumstances - shelling, loss of work, threat to the lives of children. They do not leave the thoughts of returning, but it requires real changes - safety, housing, economic prospects.

However, Bodnar acknowledges that 15-20% of Ukrainians will probably remain in Poland forever. These people have already adapted, arranged life, issued documents or applied for Polish citizenship.

"Most of our other people say," If the war is stopped tomorrow, we go home, "the ambassador summed up.

These words sound especially relevant against the background of discussions in Ukrainian society about whether refugees will return after the war. They reiterate that emigration for the majority is a temporary forced step, not the final choice.
