Although Eastern European countries open their arms to meet Ukrainian refugees, the number of rapid increases constitutes a heavy burden on their limited economic capabilities and resources.
Polish Prime Minister Moravitz said that the European Union must solve this problem according to the mechanism.He described this is a test of "morality" in Europe.
One of the considerations of the Eastern European countries accepts Ukraines is that they can fill the labor gaps of various countries.

In addition, how to integrate a large number of refugees into a new society is another issue.For Poland, which has the most accommodation, they have felt the pressure because many refugees are the elderly and children who cannot work.
Professor Britz, a professor at the University of London, England, said: "How can such a large -scale migration tide integrate into Europe? This will be a problem, the 'out of control point' has not yet arrived."
Moldova has publicly requested emergency assistance to deal with the impulse 100,000 people.Prime Minister Moldova said to the visit to the US Secretary of State Brillin last weekend: "We need assistance to cope with this trend of refugees and be fast."
