The members of the human rights committee in the Romanian Senate and a delegation from the Ukrainian Parliament on a trip to Bucharest on Tuesday highlighted the help provided by the Romanian people to the almost 1 million persons who crossed the border into Romania to flee war. The priorities are healthcare, education, and, especially, children’s needs, said Anca Dragu, the president of the Senate’s human rights committee at a meeting with the Ukrainian MPs. She said Romania received over 4,400 asylum applications. The head of the Ukrainian delegation Liudmyla Marchenko thanked the Romanian people for the help given and expressed hope that Romania would also contribute to Ukraine’s reconstruction.
