Summary/Abstract: Since the aggression of Russian Federation in Ukraine, Europe experiences an influx of refugees coming from the neighbouring State. The response of private persons, non-governmental organizations, civil society and the Romanian government were prompt and oriented towards giving effect to the idea of international protection that vulnerable persons such as those applying for the status of refugee should benefit from. In order to put in place an effective framework of protection, the Government of Romania not only permitted access into the Romanian territory, but also adopted special legislation on temporary protection, in accordance with the measures undertaken by the European Union. The aim of this paper, on the one side, is to analyse the specific rules of International Law applicable to refugees, implications for the States and on the other, to emphasise the reasons for which the response coming from the Romanian authorities and society is an example of good practices.
