Washington: On March 24, the Biden administration said that the United States planned to accept up to 100,000 Ukrainians fleeing Russia’s invasion and was pledging $1 billion in new humanitarian aid. The announcement came after U.S. President Joe Biden’s meeting with European leaders in Brussels to ‘coordinate the Western response to the crisis’. The Biden administration said in a statement it would use “the full range of legal pathways” to bring Ukrainians to the United States, including the U.S. refugee resettlement program.
