JAKARTA - As many as 2500 Ukrainian refugees from Moldova will be picked up and accommodated in Germany. This is a form of German assistance after Eastern Europe seemed overwhelmed in carrying out refugee evacuation efforts.
This was conveyed by German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock after speaking with her Moldovan counterpart in Kishinau. He said Germany would help neighboring Ukraine take care of the refugees.
Corridors, Baerbock said, would be built via Romania to transport refugees to Germany, mostly by bus.
"Europe and our countries stand together in solidarity with you, we will take refugees from you," he said.
The number of Ukrainian refugees, since Russia launched its invasion on February 24, now stands at more than 2.5 million and a number of cities in eastern Europe are running out of accommodation.
More than 270,300 people have crossed into Moldova from Ukraine and about 105,000 of them have settled there.
To date, there are 109,183 registered refugees in Germany, the German interior ministry said on Friday, March 11.
German communities have offered up to 300,000 private homes to accommodate refugees.
