The United Kingdom is softening its stance on immigrants now that war has broken out in Eastern Europe. There will be no cap on the number of refugees the U.K. admits under a new visa program designed to help Ukrainians fleeing the conflict in their country.

Countries around the world have opened their arms to refugees fleeing the conflict, but the U.K. has been slow to ease the transition. The Refugee Council, a U.K. charity that works with refugees and asylum-seekers, has criticized the government for not waiving visa requirements like European Union countries have.
