Germany, Poland and the Czech Republic asked the European Union for financial support to help cover the cost of hosting Ukrainian refugees since the three countries have taken in the lion’s share since Russia’s invasion.

The leaders of the three central European nations made the request for funding in a joint letter to European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen.
