Most Ukrainian refugees will not return to their homeland after the end of the conflict. This is stated by Senator for Urban Development Andreas Geisel.
The German authorities believe that refugees from Ukraine will not return home after the end of the conflict.
“If we calculate that out of about 100,000 refugees, more than 80,000 applied for long-term residence in Germany, then we can observe the picture that most of them will remain in Berlin for very long years and will not return to their homeland,” says Geisel in an interview with the German agency Dpa.
He cites the example of his counterpart from Bosnia in the 1990s, when the Yugoslav war broke out.
“His mother said that they would stay in Germany for a few months and then return home. But today my colleague is German and works in the administration of the Senate,” says the senator for urban development.
According to the senator, it can be concluded that the majority of Ukrainian refugees will remain in Berlin for a long time.
He also spoke about the problems with housing, since the market is now very tense atmosphere – there is not enough new housing. For refugees, modular housing is now being built, which is designed for a service life of 50 to 70 years.
