If you're crossing borders/languages, you're crossing borders/languages.

I mean, Poland, Czech Republic, Hungary, Romania and Bulgaria are all EU members, which means they have freedom of movement - they don't even require any visa or work permit. Just show up in Western Europe and work. The same is currently temporarily true for Ukrainians.

Compare that to the extreme effort for them to get a green card in the US.
