Ethnic Bulgarians from Zaporizhia in Ukraine, accommodated in Gorna Oryahovitsa have called on the Bulgarian government to extend the humanitarian aid program, which provides them with a hotel room. The government has announced that the program will end on May 31. After this date, those interested will be transferred to municipal housing or social centers. "We want to work and integrate," refugees told BNR reporter Zdravka Maslyankova. However, they worry that the salaries they would receive would not be enough to support their children and pay rent.
"It would be difficult for some refugees to realize that at some point they would need to start a new life in Bulgaria," Veliko Tarnovo Deputy Governor Sonya Budeva commented.
