The Czech Republic earned 4.4 billion kroner from Ukrainian refugees over the past six months, underscoring the economic benefits of their stay in the country. This became possible thanks to the integration of refugees into the labor market and participation in local economic processes, which demonstrates that these people are not only a social, but also an economic benefit for the Czech Republic.
In the first half of 2024, 7.3 billion crowns were allocated for humanitarian aid to refugees from Ukraine. And working Ukrainians paid 11.7 billion crowns to the budget of the Czech Republic. That is, the Ukrainians added 4.4 billion crowns to the state budget of the Czechs.
Currently, approximately 25% of all refugees receive assistance, the amount of assistance per adult is 4,860 kroner ($215) and 3,490 kroner ($155) per child, and housing support is also available. In total, there are 345,000 Ukrainians in the country: most of them are women and children.
The Czech Republic extended temporary protection until April 2025. (this decision of the EU Council is the same for all EU members). Refugees have access to public health insurance, education and the labor market.
The Ministry of Labor and Social Protection stated that the costs of rubber assistance are regularly decreasing, while incomes are increasing. That is, the Czechs correctly built their state policy towards our citizens, a significant number of whom work.
Europe is very interested in our fellow citizens: mostly educated, hardworking, close-minded people of young productive age with children, who solve both the demographic problem and the problem of the lack of labor resources.
At this time, Ukraine continues to lose hundreds of thousands of its fellow citizens, continuing the war, escalating and losing the economy and jobs, finishing the degrading medicine and education.
Even Olaf Scholz went to Uzbekistan, solving, in addition to energy resources, the problem of Germany with labor migrants from Central Asia. And where will Ze-vlada import labor migrants to Ukraine?
After all, the longer the war lasts, the fewer chances there are to return compatriots home.
