Ukrainian Vice-premier Iryna Vereshchuk visited the Humanitarian Centre in Gabcikovo (Trnava region) on Monday. The facility, which is run by the Interior Ministry's Migration Office, has been providing accommodation and basic services to Ukrainian refugees since the war in Ukraine began in February 2022. Accompanied by Interior Ministry State Secretary Lubomir Sablica and Migration Office head Jan Orlovsky, the Ukrainian vice-premier visited the premises providing accommodation to Ukrainian citizens who had fled the war. "Since the beginning of the war, the Interior Ministry has been doing its utmost to help our Ukrainian friends fleeing Russian aggression. Thirty percent of the centre's residents have already found jobs in Slovakia," said Sablica. In the centre's cinema hall, Vereshchuk held a more than one-hour discussion with Ukrainians living in the centre. She said that she was pleased to see the premises where they live. "I listened to their opinions and experiences from the past months, and we held a constructive dialogue with our colleagues from Slovakia," stated Vereshchuk. At the same time she thanked Slovak officials for their attitude towards and help provided to refugees. According to Orlovsky, the situation in connection with refugees from Ukraine has been stabilised, and the Gabcikovo centre is functioning well.
