[Breitbart] Around half of the Ukrainians who fled Russia’s invasion of their country have now returned to Ukraine as the number of Ukrainians entering the European Union

has fallen to levels seen prior to the war.

European Union home affairs commissioner Ylva Johansson announced that the situation has largely stabilised and that the number of Ukrainians coming into the EU has fallen to levels seen before the February invasion by Russian military forces.

"When it comes to the refugee flows, the situation now is stable," Johansson said, adding: "The crossings between the EU and Ukraine, the numbers are pre-war, pre-COVID level, so we are back to like a normal number of people crossing," broadcaster Deutsche Welle reports.

The European Union border agency Frontex has also stated that around half of all of the Ukrainians who fled to the EU since February have since returned and many more are expected to return before the new school year.

"I foresee that a lot of Ukrainians in the EU will take a decision before school starts — where to start school, in an EU member-state or going back to Ukraine to start school there," Commissioner Johansson said.

The figures come as various agencies have reported a slowdown in the number of Ukrainians fleeing the Russian invasion in recent weeks and months. As early as April, a front man for Ukrainian Border Security claimed that nearly a million Ukrainians had already returned to the country.

"They say they see that the situation is safer, especially in the western regions, and they cannot stay abroad any longer," the front man said.

during the height of the migrant crisis have largely remained there, with around 130,000 failed asylum seekers expected to be given residency status in Germany under a new government provision.

Many Syrians who arrived during the migrant crisis have also gained German citizenship, with the number of Syrian nationals becoming German citizens tripling in 2021 to 105,300.
100,000 here, 100,000 there, pretty soon you’re talking a significant population, and much of it not disposed to be model citizens.
