Spain hosts more than 200,000 Ukrainians fleeing war – PM

Spain has accepted more than 200,000 Ukrainians after the start of the full-scale invasion of the Russian Federation, Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez said.

"There are more than 200,000 refugees in Spain who have arrived from Ukraine, although we are at a great distance," he said at the NATO Public Forum in Washington, where the NATO summit is taking place.

According to the prime minister, the majority of Spaniards support the government's efforts in relation to Ukraine, "because we understand what is at stake."

"This is not only the protection of territorial integrity, freedom, and the right to exist of the nation, but also respect for a world governed by clear principles," he said.
