Summary/Abstract: The article discusses the challenges faced by the Ukrainian government in encouraging the return of refugees, highlighting the lack of safety and funds for social programs as major obstacles. Despite official statements about post-war reconstruction and economic revival, there are few concrete proposals to incentivize returns. The text points out that many refugees have settled abroad, with some even obtaining citizenship in their host countries. The article suggests that instead of pressing for their return, the government should focus on building mutually beneficial relationships with Ukrainians abroad, avoiding confrontation. The narrative explores the potential negative consequences of reducing financial support for refugees and emphasizes the need for better communication and realistic policies to maintain connections with the diaspora. The importance of mutual respect and understanding between Ukrainians in the homeland and those who have left is underscored, along with the need for a public discourse and reconciliation strategies to foster a cooperative future.
