Abstract As per October 19, 2022, seven million people had fled to the closest border, because of Russia invasion. Twitter provides information on potential migration issues. This research was conducted by using qualitative Social Network Analysis (SNA) and doctrinal law analysis to measure the openness of the European Union (EU) public and identify the legal limitation which may happen in the process. The SNA is performed by utilizing 7,171 tweets with the hashtags #immigration and #ukrainerefugees obtained between February 27 and March 3, 2022. Based on data analysis, it discovered that most Twitter users in the EU had a high level of receptivity toward Ukrainian refugees, as evidenced by the 3776 positive sentiments. However, found that the duration of protection and refugee determination process are two examples of legal limitations, which threaten the refugees. Then, a further legal framework is required to guarantee the protection of Ukrainian refugees.
