The one thing that shines through in this sh*tshow is the Polish people, in fact all of them and especially Moldova, they have gone above and beyond in helping the millions of refugees with everything from meals to accommodation, my hats off to them and if there is any justice in the world they will receive accolades and aid tenfold.

Moldova they are a poor country with a population of 2.6 million, but have welcomed 1/4 million refugees .

An estimated 230,000 refugees have crossed the border from Ukraine to Moldova, with 120,000 of these planning to remain in the country.

As much of the border with Ukraine is part of Transnistria (an area of Moldova with links to Russia) most refugees are entering through the southern tip of Moldova close to the Ukrainian port city of Odessa. Despite the amazing support provided by Moldovan volunteers and the government, people and resources are being stretched to their limit.

Moldova is one of the poorest countries in Europe with a population of only 2.6 million, making it the country with the most refugees per-capita. Ensuring adequate assistance is provided to all Ukrainian refugees arriving in the country is vital, including those at greater risk such as older people and those with disabilities.
