According to Ukrinform, SBGS spokesperson Andrii Demchenko said this on television. He dismissed reports that more Ukrainians were leaving the country because they feared a harsh winter, citing statistics that contradict the claims. "In October, a total of 3.06 million people crossed the border, 85% of them Ukrainian citizens. In September, passenger traffic stood at 3.3 million, so the figure has declined. And over the past few days in November, we have also seen no increase in passenger traffic," Demchenko said. He said that in October, the overall balance of people entering and leaving Ukraine was evenly split, at 50% each. In other words, there was neither a greater number of people leaving Ukraine nor an increase in arrivals.
