EVANSTON (WBBM NEWSRADIO) - Northwestern University is joining 20 other universities worldwide in condemning Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
Northwestern’s Associate Provost of Global Affairs Annelise Riles says Russia’s invasion of Ukraine is a flagrant violation of international law and that universities are taking a stand in defense of shared moral values.
The 21 universities that have signed on to their position say they support Ukrainian victims and those in need. But they also are committed to the safety and well-being of any Russian students, faculty or staff who are on their campuses.
Among those joining Northwestern are Australian National University, the University of Tokyo, the University of Cambridge, and others.
