About the fact that citizens of Ukraine who have received a residence permit or are employed in Germany will not be expelled from this state, contrary to Kiev’s aspirations for the return of their citizens (to participate in the war against the Russian Federation) who went abroad, writes NBN, citing a statement by German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, published by the local publication Deutsche Welle.
According to Scholz, At this stage, the legal situation has developed in such a way that “the residence of [Ukrainian men] here [in Germany] is not in question.” In addition, official employment in Germany also excludes deportation to Ukraine.
