The government has created a Ministry of National Unity that hopes to attract residents abroad and ease the demographic crisis to address the reconstruction of the country

Summary

Ukraine is struggling to reverse a severe population decline worsened by Russia’s invasion, with 6-10 million citizens still abroad.

To address this, the government created the Ministry of National Unity, prioritizing repatriation as part of a resilience plan.

However, security concerns, economic instability, and lack of services deter returns.

Ukraine faces an urgent labor shortage for post-war recovery, needing millions of workers by 2032, as prolonged displacement reduces the likelihood of return.

    These plans are dumb as hell, there is a war, right now, peoplle dying every day from missile attacks. All power generation stations are either damaged or can’t be scaled in short term. All infrastructure is damaged everywhere. There won’t be post-war recovery. If these people don’t want to return let them be wherever they want to be. Most of them are white and sometimes even work, so all anti-refugee politicians would be ok with them. I am glad that they are safe and alive.
