Immigration to Ukraine

Immigration into Ukraine (postindependence (1991)) has been mainly ethnic Ukrainians already living in nearby countries (for example in 1993 they were 90% of all immigrants); other immigrants were mostly Crimean Tatars and people fleeing wars in Azerbaijan, Transnistria and Chechnya (a region in Russia).[1]

After the start of the War in Donbass in 2014 several hundreds foreigners (mostly Russians and Belarusians) migrated to Ukraine to join its territorial defence battalions and army.[2]

gollark: Libraries are clearly bee, use raw WebGL like Tetris.
gollark: As opposed to anything actually useful like highlighting lines or something.
gollark: It seems like a weird tool to have.
gollark: You could always patch your copy. I don't remember any of the entries having extremely obfuscated source.
gollark: How do you do good AI on tic-tac-toe anyway? It seems like it would be hard unless you can somehow model the other player well.
