Any tweaks to the EU's current protection scheme for those fleeing war in Ukraine should be implemented "very gradually", the UN's Deputy High Commissioner for Refugees Kelly Clements has told Euronews, as EU capitals reportedly mull removing protections for Ukrainian men of conscription age.
"The war has not abated. It has become more intense, with more civilians caught in the middle," Clements explained. "The circumstances that created the conditions for the European Union to issue temporary protection have largely not ended."
