Some 5 million people could flee Ukraine, EU's Borrell says
As many as five million Ukrainians are expected to flee the country if Russia's bombing of Ukraine continues, the EU's top diplomat said on Monday.
 
"We must prepare to receive around five million people... We must mobilize all the resources of the EU to help those countries receiving people," Josep Borrell told reporters as he arrived for a meeting of EU development ministers in Montpellier, France. "We will need more schools, more reception centers, more of everything," he said.
 
Borrell also pledged more scrutiny of EU aid spending in countries that have supported Russia diplomatically or abstained from criticizing Moscow's invasion of Ukraine.
