Comments | This report was prepared following the visit by the SRSG to the Slovak Republic between 2 and 4 May 2022 with a view to seeing first-hand the challenges on the ground and the Slovak authorities’ response to them. It gives an overview of the situation of people from Ukraine in the Slovak Republic based on the observations of the SRSG team during the mission. The visit also aimed at assessing needs and whether the Council of Europe could provide adequate assistance, notably through the Action Plan. The primary focus therefore is on vulnerable persons. Major issues such as access to accommodation, access to healthcare, including psychological support, access to the labour market, which play significant roles for the protection and inclusion of these people in the long run, are also addressed. |
