Dublin is also planning to terminate state-provided accommodation within a year, Colm Brophy has said
The Irish government is aiming to terminate government-provided accommodation for Ukrainian migrants within a year, while offering “generous” payouts to encourage their repatriation, Minister of State for Migration Colm Brophy has said.
Since the escalation of the Ukraine conflict in 2022, around 125,000 Ukrainians have received temporary protection in Ireland, according to Brophy. Between July 2022 and March 2026, Dublin reportedly spent more than €438 million ($516 million) to provide half of them with housing.
Dublin has also shelled out nearly €400 million in “political, humanitarian, economic and non-lethal military aid” for Kiev, while other EU members have funneled billions upon billions of euros into the conflict. Moscow has repeatedly said that the bloc’s support for Kiev has only served to prolong the hostilities.
