Is there a country closer to their homeland where they can be housed? It is unfortunate they have to be so far from home. Or better yet, can we just push for peace talks so they can stay home?

"Stay home" as in "stay in a country occupied by an enemy country who wants to get rid of you"?

Sure. That sounds like a brilliant solution.

If we are talking about Palestine and Gaza yes, stay home would be much better than be killed and repelled.

Some of these people don't have any homes anymore, literally. Some places have been pretty so extensively damaged that you're not able to live there anymore.

We need both, help for refugees that have nowhere else to go, and more dialog to end the conflict.

This applies to all conflicts.

Ukraine itself houses a great many internal refugees. The EU countries have agreed to each take a fair share of refugees, but Germany, Poland and Czechia carry the good majority right now.

I'm not sure how it's counted (whether it includes forcibly migrated), but according to Statista, Russia currently holds the majority of non-internal Ukrainian refugees.
