MANILA, Philippines — The United Nations Human Rights Council lauded the readiness of the Philippine government to accept Ukrainians fleeing the war.

 

"UNHCR commends the Philippine Government, through Justice Secretary Menardo Guevarra, for its swift expression of willingness to accept people forced to flee from Ukraine due to ongoing emergency," it said in a statement.

 

UNCHR Philippines Head of National Office Maria Ermina Valdeavilla-Gallardo said, in the same statement, that the Philippines has proven again that “it is a leader in the region when it comes to ensuring the inclusion of refugees, asylum seekers, stateless persons and those at risk of statelessness in Government programs and services, especially during these challenging times.”
