Allow Ukrainian refugees visa-free entry to escape the war

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Open the door to the victims of the most severe military aggression in Europe since WW2. Arrange visa-free regime for Ukrainian citizens. That’s the obvious next step after putting a Ukrainian flag on Downing Street.

Hundreds of thousands of people are expected to leave Ukraine in the near future, leaving everything behind. The EU has open borders for them, only the UK has a separate regime. This is something the UK should definitely join the EU. Despite Brexit we still have much in common. Stopping Ukrainian refugees at the border would be an international embarrassment for a country which has the Ukrainian flag over the PM’s office.
