As a result of the full-scale war unleashed by Russia, 8.2 million residents of Ukraine have gone abroad.
Olena Shuliak, leader of the Servant of the People party, head of the parliamentary committee on the organization of state power, local self-government, regional development, and urban planning, said this in an exclusive interview with Ukrainian Radio.
"8.2 million of our people are currently abroad, more than 5 million are internally displaced persons in the territory of Ukraine," she said.
Shuliak noted: when planning the post-war reconstruction of Ukraine, it is necessary to understand how many of these millions of refugees will return to their communities, how to employ them, and ensure access to social infrastructure.
