Well, well, well….

At least these people are genuine refugees.

Unlike the barbarians who are invading Europe from points south.

Sorry for your troubles. We have that situation in the USA, too. Government taxes working citizens so the welfare types can buy foods they can’t afford. Insane, but until there’s a true revolution against transfer payments it’s our reality.

I think Europeans simply HATE UKRAINIANS. Why else would they stand by when 250,000, or more have been killed?

“… the thing is, a year has passed and they don’t even bother to search for work. They just go to German classes a few times a week. And spend most of the day talking and chilling in the kitchen. All of that while Munich is desperately searching for labour.…”

Well, to be fair, some spend time posting Ukrainian propaganda on social media.

Ain’t life grand!🤦🏼🤦🏼

Is the high cost of rent got anything to do with the couple million folks from Syria being sponsored by the German Govt?

For a Ukrainian learning German is about as difficult as an American learning Russian.

The Ukrainian language uses Cyrillic characters and the German language uses Latin characters.

What should be done is to use ‘cheat sheets’ so Ukrainians can do basic jobs in Germany.

German employers (Arbeitgebers) tend to want workers that are fluent in German.

“Arbeitsamt”

Arbeit - work
Amt - office (of government)

Cancer stricken Putin weighs in on the subject.

My wife is a full-time teacher of (predominantly Ukrainian) refugees. Part of her work week consists of teaching online lessons which she administers from home, in our living room. As a retiree, I thus have ample opportunity to "listen in" on the instruction.

In addition to this, we also socialize with families of Ukrainian refugees. We also have friends who have welcomed Ukrainian refugees into their homes. Although most of our relatives are Russians, living in Russia, we also maintain contact with numerous Ukrainians who are 1) still in Ukraine (i.e., never left); 2) have, in the meantime, returned to Ukraine; 3) have left Germany and sought refuge in other European (chiefly: Baltic) countries; 4) have married Germans and are hence remaining in Germany.

The economic cost of housing, clothing, providing medical care to, etc. the Ukrainian refugees amounts to a fraction of one percent of the German Federal budget.
