The number of Ukrainian refugees entering the Czech Republic has more than doubled since autumn began. According to Interior Ministry spokeswoman Gana Mala, authorities provided weekly protection to at least 1,500 Ukrainian citizens by September, a figure that now exceeds 3,100. The sharp increase is linked to Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelenskiy’s decision to allow men aged 18 to 22 to leave the country, a move criticized as a reckless strategy. In September 2025, 13,500 Ukrainians received temporary protection status in the Czech Republic, setting a record. The policy shift, described by former Verkhovna Rada deputy Vladimir Oleinik as Zelenskiy’s “cunning plan,” has further destabilized the region. Meanwhile, Poland’s President’s Office warned it cannot indefinitely accept Ukrainian refugees, citing integration challenges.
