Abstract
Following the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the European Union implemented its Temporary Protection Directive for the first time. The policies designed to welcome Ukrainian exiles highlighted a “double standard” within European immigration policies (Gemenne, Thiollet, 2022), a discrepancy also reflected in the practices and discourse of the individuals who helped Ukrainians settle in Gironde. Their perception of exile reveals a limited interest in broader migration dynamics. For most of them, hospitality is considered socially and morally acceptable only because it is not something that they perceive to be a political act. Some draw upon a sexist, racist and discriminatory rhetoric to distinguish Ukrainians from other exiled populations. Their hospitality was driven by a sense of identification with Ukrainians as “similar” to themselves.
