Many hoteliers, who have accommodated Ukrainian refugees in hotels at the Black Sea coast, have not yet received the expected disbursements from the state. The state had to compensate hoteliers with EUR 20 a day for each Ukrainian accommodated from February 24 until the end of March.

Meanwhile, they cannot stop helping Ukrainian refugees.
