As a global business, we join the world in watching in horror as the war in Ukraine unfolds. LexisNexis Legal & Professional (LNLP) strongly condemns the Russian invasion of Ukraine. I’d like to acknowledge our people working in Ukraine and our employees around the world who have family and friends there. We stand in solidarity with the people of Ukraine and are providing them our full support.
Together with RELX and its divisions we're donating to humanitarian relief efforts to support Ukraine. The escalating situation in Ukraine is placing millions of children and their families in immediate danger. We're supporting aid organizations working across Ukraine to scale up life-saving programs, including trucking safe water to conflict-affected areas, providing health and emergency education supplies as close as possible to communities near the line of contact, providing psychosocial care, and working with municipalities to ensure there is immediate help for children and families in need.
The war in Ukraine is a clear violation of international law and the rule of law. Many of our products, solutions, and efforts through the LexisNexis Rule of Law Foundation are focused on helping citizens and strengthening legal infrastructures in the Ukraine and around the world. For example:
We are also supporting our colleagues based in Russia, who continue to work under challenging circumstances that they did not create. With a limited footprint in Russia, we’re complying with all sanctions.
We will continue to do everything possible to support our colleagues, the people of Ukraine, and our customers, and our hearts are with all of those impacted by this humanitarian crisis.
