Scrap visa requirements for Ukrainian refugees
Rejected
13 signatures
What the petition asks
Many countries have waived the requirement for Ukrainian citizens to have visas before entering. As things currently stand, Ukrainian nationals need a visa before boarding a plane to the UK. The government must remove this requirement, so that Ukrainian citizens can come and live safely.
