According to an adviser to the Interior Minister Viktor Andrusiv, 4.8 million people have returned to Ukraine since the beginning of the war. In the first month of Russian aggression, about 7.6 million Ukrainians left the country. However, since the situation started stabilizing, 60% of those people have already returned home. Andrusiv says that the reasons for the return are unsatisfactory free housing conditions, high rent prices, and the language barrier for employment. “Conflict statistics show that 80% of citizens will return after the war is over, but 50% of them will come back home before the war ends,” Victor Andrusiv said.
