Canada offers Western countries a path towards handling the fallout from the Ukraine refugee crisis, writes sharonlamhk:
- As of March 21, more than 3.5 million refugees have fled Ukraine since Feb. 24, according to estimates by the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees. Of neighboring countries, Poland accounts for the largest share, followed by Romania.
- Canada on March 17 announced the launch of the Canada-Ukraine authorization for emergency travel. Under the scheme, Ukrainians and their immediate family members of any nationality can stay in Canada as temporary residents for up to three years, while many of the regular requirements are waived. - “The war in Ukraine is so devastating that 10 million have fled — either displaced inside the country, or as refugees abroad,” UNHCR head Filippo Grandi tweeted on March 20.Editing by John Foley and Pranav KiranReuters Breakingviews is the world's leading source of agenda-setting financial insight.
