Home Office officials continue to work closely with the Ukrainian Government on our measures to date to ensure our measures respond directly to their needs and asks. We will continue to consider their requests and respond to meet their needs.

It should also be noted Ukrainian Law places significant restrictions on men aged 18 to 60 from leaving the country at this time, which must be borne in mind by anyone planning travel to the UK.
