Statement on the War in Ukraine
The Institute for European Global Studies of the University of Basel fully supports the statement of the European University Association and the statement of the University of Basel concerning the war in Ukraine. We are shocked and concerned, condemn the Russian invasion and are very worried about the situation in Ukraine. We hope for solidarity, cooperation and cross-border collaboration.
Our thoughts are especially with our former visiting fellow Oleksandr Moskalenko and his family.
