A new EU directive applies to refugees from Ukraine

In early March 2022, the European Union (EU) activated the so-called “mass influx directive”.

It is the central decision-making body of the EU in matters of European home affairs and justice policy. The Mass Influx Directive was created in 2001 after the wars in the former… Read More

Where refugees from Ukraine can find help

Ukrainians who have a biometric passport do not need a visa for 90 days in many European countries, including Germany. But registration with the municipality is a prerequisite for applying for social benefits. The application is then forwarded to the foreigners authority. Except for the cities of Tübingen and… Read More

At least 17 wars in Europe since 1945

By Wolfgang Sannwald There have been at least 17 other wars in Europe since the end of the Second World War (1939-1945). The one between Russia and Ukraine is the most recent, lasting since 2014. The three Caucasus states Georgia, Azerbaijan and Armenia, where there have also been several wars, are not included.
