New Statement of the Organising Committee of XVI INC on the War in Ukraine

On behalf of the Organising Committee of the XVI International Numismatic Congress, we strongly condemn V. Putin’s aggression on the territory of Ukraine. Following the decision of the Polish Ministry of Science and Higher Education to suspend all contacts with Russian scholars resulting from the escalation of Russian activities and the institutional involvement of Russian science on the side of the regime, we are obliged to inform you that the participation of Russian citizens in the XVI International Numismatic Congress in Warsaw will not be possible in any form. At the same time, we offer all our support and help to all persecuted colleagues who, by opposing the war, have found themselves or will find themselves in danger or exile.
