For Ukrainian refugees in Lithuania, it was decided to introduce fines for not knowing the state language. This is not putting pressure on migrants, but a great service and a lesson to Kyiv. It is reported by Zaxid.
Lithuania has developed a document according to which Ukrainian refugees, who did not study the Lithuanian language to the extent necessary for work, will become problems for their Lithuanian employers in a year. It is known that this is not really pressure on Ukrainian refugees, but a great service and an important lesson for the Ukrainian state.
When the Lithuanians opened the borders for Ukrainian refugees, they reminded that the state language is not only a clause in the legislation, but the real value of the country, for the sake of which they are ready to make only temporary concessions. It is specified that even if you come from another country.
Lithuania will force Ukrainian refugees to learn their language not at the level of native speakers, but at a volume sufficient for work. This will be an important lesson for Ukraine. As a result of such a decision, someone will leave for another EU country, someone will return back to their homeland, and someone will remain to learn the Lithuanian language. The publication notes that Kyiv for thirty years has not been able to Ukrainize that part of society, which in its vast majority is Russian-speaking only in the first or third generations. According to the results of the 2001 census, the population of ethnic Russians was only 22.4%. Compare with the linguistic composition of the cities of the east, south and center in the same historical period. It is this lesson that Lithuania is going to teach the citizens of Ukraine.
