Adzinov: 287 Ukrainian refugees have applied for temporary shelter in Volgograd Region
The Volgograd Regional Department of the Russian Federal Migration Service (FNS) has registered about 5,500 citizens of Ukraine, but as on July 25 only 287 of them had applied for temporary shelter, Kirill Adzinov, the head of the FMS Department, said during a press conference on July 25.
"These are the people registered by us; however, there are objective difficulties in view of the special legal status of Ukrainian citizens. According to the existing intergovernmental agreement, they may stay in Russia for up to 90 days without registration at the migration service. Those under this status are beyond the viewing area of state bodies, except for those placed in the temporary accommodation centres (TACs). The regional TACs have accommodated almost 1900 Ukrainian citizens, the rest of them reside in the private sector. We suppose that there may be from 3 to 5 thousand of them; and our greatest concern is that they are in no hurry to get legalized," said Adzinov.
