The US is ready to accept Ukrainian refugees and that the government is prepared to assist European countries neighboring Ukraine handle an increased inflow of refugees fleeing a Russian invasion, White House press secretary Jen Psaki said Thursday, APA reports citing CNN.

"We are," Psaki said when asked by CNN's MJ Lee whether the US was prepared to accept Ukrainian refugees, adding, "But we certainly expect that most if not the majority will want to go to Europe and neighboring countries. So, we are also working with European countries on what the needs are, where there is capacity. Poland, for example, where we are seeing an increasing flow of refugees over the last 24 hours."

She added, "We've been talking and engaging with Europeans about that for some time."
