EUI Statement

For a European higher education such as the EUI, predicated on transcending national borders and promoting dialogue between cultures, the military invasion of a sovereign state is deeply shocking.

The EUI Community resolutely stands with the people of Ukraine at this tragic time and mobilises to assist those who are in need of protection.

The EUI supports the statement of CIVICA – The European University of Social Sciences, which stands in solidarity with Ukraine and supports all those affected by the terrible military aggression.
