26% Of Ukrainian Refugees in Germany Plan to Stay

At least 11,000 Ukrainian refugees took part in a survey inquiring about their future plans in Germany. 26% said they hope to remain in Germany long-term. 11% said they would stay for at least a few years and then decide their long-term plan, and 17% of Ukrainian refugees reported having a job that would likely require them to stay in Germany. It is estimated that about 1 million Ukrainian refugees are in Germany.

From Remix:

While Germans have had fewer integration problems with Ukrainians, the addition of a million people has put a strain on Germany’s housing, education, and social benefits systems. The fact that so many Ukrainians want to permanently stay in the country could present challenges, especially given that the majority of Germans express “big worries” that too many migrants are arriving in the country.
