Situation actuelle en Ukraine
On February 24, 2022, Russian President Vladimir Putin launched a war against Ukraine. A conflict dating back to 2014 between these two countries. Air strikes were launched across the country, including the capital Kiev. As well as the entry of ground forces from the north, east and south of the country.
This entry into the war is the result of long months of tension between the two countries, with Russia refusing to accept Ukraine’s rapprochement with Western democracies, let alone its desire to join NATO – a point unacceptable to Vladimir Putin, who sees it as a threat to his borders.
Many countries are supporting Ukraine and condemning Russia with sanctions. They include: France, the United States, Canada, Australia, Spain, Portugal, Norway, Turkey, Romania, Bulgaria, the United Kingdom, Finland and many others…
Mondassur pays tribute to all Ukrainians who resisted the Russian invasion.
Our policyholders have left the Ukraine, and we are currently unable to offer international health cover in this country. Before the war, it was possible to take out travel insurance, international student insurance or expatriate insurance covering repatriation, hospitalization, civil liability and other emergency medical expenses.

Health and repatriation insurance in Ukraine
Why take out international health insurance when traveling or living in Ukraine? Quite simply because health expenses can quickly reach very high levels abroad. Repatriation cover is also an essential criterion. In the event of a serious accident, you may need to be repatriated to the nearest medical center or to your country of residence. Depending on where you are at the time of the accident, and on the medical prognosis, it may be necessary to charter a helicopter or medical aircraft.
Mondassur can help you choose your international health insurance by helping you compare the different offers on the market. Depending on your profile, we can offer you different types of travel insurance, international student insurance and expatriate insurance.
