Ukrainian World Congress discourages business travel to Russia

 

The Ukrainian World Congress (UWC) calls upon the global business community to support the international condemnation of Russia’s brazen aggression against Ukraine and violation of international law, including the UN Charter, by suspending business travel to Russia, particularly all participation in international conferences and public appearances, that can be perceived as an endorsement of  “business as usual”.

 

“We call upon the global business community to apply economic pressure on Russia to de-escalate the crisis in Ukraine and ensure world peace and stability,” stated UWC President Eugene Czolij.
