This was announced by the press secretary of the Ukrainian president Svyatoslav Tsegolko.

"Ukrainians are very smart, work hard, and often speak Portuguese better than the Portuguese. This is what President Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa said about our community. Ukrainians in Portugal are the third-largest minority after Brazilians and Cape Verdeans (according to various sources, between 50,000 and 100,000) and the largest non-Portuguese-speaking community," Tsegolko proudly wrote on his Facebook page.

Let us note that not only Portugal, but also the Czech Republic, Poland and other EU countries experiencing a shortage of cheap labor are actively inviting migrant workers from Ukraine fleeing poverty in their homeland. Thus, more than one million Ukrainians have already received the right to work in Poland.
