The European Commission is planning to make changes to the temporary protection scheme for Ukrainian refugees. According to sources, Ukrainian men of military age may be excluded from the program.

This decision may have serious consequences for thousands of Ukrainians who have fled the war in Ukraine. The European Commission has not yet announced the official details of the decision, but experts have already begun discussing the possible consequences.

Context of the decision

The temporary protection scheme was introduced by the European Union in response to the start of the armed conflict in Ukraine. It provides refugees with the opportunity to receive temporary shelter in EU countries. However, the European Commission is now considering limiting access to the program for Ukrainian men of military age.

Experts note that this decision may be related to the need to support Ukraine in the military conflict. However, it may also lead to an increase in the number of refugees who will be forced to return to Ukraine.
