<p><strong>The rules should not be eased for anyone seeking long-term residence permits in the country, Tomio Okamura has said</strong></p>
            
                        
            <p>Ukrainians applying for long-term residence permits in the Czech Republic should not be given preferential treatment over other foreigners, the president of the parliament&rsquo;s lower house, Tomio Okamura, has said.</p>
<p>According to the Czech authorities, 393,000 Ukrainians are currently residing in the country and have temporary protection, which gives them access to healthcare, education, and the labor market. Last year, 16,000 Ukrainians were granted long-term residence permits.</p>
<p>Commenting on a proposal to ease conditions for Ukrainian migrants seeking to obtain the status, Okamura, the head of the Chamber of Deputies, said on Monday that his right-wing Freedom and Direct Democracy (SPD) party will oppose it.</p>
<p>He argued that all foreigners <em>&ldquo;need to meet the same standard conditions and that there are no exceptions.&rdquo;</em></p>
<p>Okamura, whose party is a member of the ruling coalition government, said that ministers representing the SPD would vote against and block the draft plan.</p>

<p>Last month, Okamura criticized a rally in central Prague where a large Ukrainian flag was displayed as an <em>&ldquo;unnecessary provocation.&rdquo;</em> The lawmaker suggested that the event organized by Kiev&rsquo;s embassy likely did not go down well with <em>&ldquo;our citizens who do not agree with the mass migration of Ukrainians to the Czech Republic.&rdquo;</em></p>
<p>Several other EU member states, including Germany, Hungary, and Poland, have recently taken steps to curb social programs for Ukrainian migrants, citing pressures on national budgets and housing markets.</p>
<p>In January, Poland approved a draft law that reduces benefits for Ukrainians, who had been enjoying rights nearly equal to those of Polish citizens and access to extensive financial and social benefits since 2022.</p>
<p>The legislation, which is expected to be finalized by March, would align Ukrainians&rsquo; rights to those of any other non-EU migrants.</p>
