Statement of solidarity
ETH Domain institutions reaffirm solidarity with Ukraine
The ETH Board as well as the six institutions of the ETH Domain – the two Federal Institutes of Technology ETH Zurich and EPFL and the four research institutes Empa, PSI, WSL and Eawag – reaffirm their full solidarity with the universities in Ukraine and join the Federal Council in its statement strongly condemning Russia's military invasion.
