Huge numbers of Ukrainian refugees in Europe already. They're doing pretty well and integrate quickly
Yeah but there was still hope that Ukraine could win the war. Now, we will basically need a mass evacuation, because the U.S. isn't just going to stop support. Russia is going to start receiving a bunch of classified intelligence about Ukrainian positions, they'll have far easier access to funds, hell Trump might just start selling them weapons.
Things have been bad, they are going to get catastrophic. While Ukrainians have been integrating pretty well, there are also a lot of far-right populists in Europe who are beginning to use them as scapegoats. These groups are probably Russian-backed, and again, they'll have more money. They will capitalize on the influx of refugees with more hateful rhetoric.
