Abstract
Some 12 million people have fled their homes since Russia's invasion of Ukraine. The UN
also claims that in July, more than 5.2 million refugees from Ukraine have been recorded across
Europe. According to Slovene police data, since the start of the war in Ukraine, there are 23,000
Ukrainians that now live in Slovenia. This presentation will offer some preliminary findings from research
conducted in June 2022 in Slovenia, in order to offer arguments about Ukraine refugees in Europe, and
specifically, in Slovenia. It will also address how the Slovene government appropriated and framed the
Ukrainian refugee "crisis" for its own purposes (elections in Slovenia took place in May). I will share
some data from media coverage on Ukrainian refugees, and how these have been framed in
mainstream media
