Dating websites, such as Ukreine.com, are experiencing a surge in interest from men seeking Ukrainian brides since the start of the war in Ukraine, which is raising concerns.
The website has a section that allows women from the war-ravaged country to connect with local men for free. While the website's founder acknowledged that matchmaking women fleeing war is not without risk, he said the website refers customers to Ukraine Take Shelter, which links refugees with men whose identities are verified and willing to provide accommodation. However, some experts are concerned that these vulnerable women could place themselves in a risky situation.
The interest in Ukrainian brides is also happening in other jurisdictions. A Chinese dating site specializing in matchmaking with Eastern European women also saw interest in Ukrainian women double since the start of the Russian invasion.
