Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, whether her Department has provided support to Poland to help that country with the arrival of Ukrainian refugees.

The Foreign Secretary most recently engaged with the Polish Foreign Minister on 2 March and our Embassy in Poland is in regular contact with its host government in Warsaw.

Total UK aid to Ukraine and the region for the current crisis comes to almost £400 million. As well as ensuring that Ukrainians have access to basic necessities and medical supplies, this will help countries surrounding Ukraine, including Poland, to receive and support the increasing flow of refugees. A five person team of UK humanitarian experts are currently (as of 4 March) in Rzeszow, Poland providing logistics advice and analysis on the evolving refugee situation there.
