Many of us are watching news of devastation in Ukraine following Russia’s invasion and ongoing attacks, wondering what if anything we can do to help both those still in Ukraine and the millions of Ukrainian refugees now fleeing to neighboring counties. Most MNCs already have taken actions in response. The humanitarian, political, and economic impact is far-reaching. Please join this member-only, off-the-record, complimentary virtual briefing coordinated by the U.S. Embassy in Hanoi to learn the latest. The U.S. Embassy in Hanoi will host Nataliya Zhynkina, Charge d’Affaires a.i. at the Embassy of Ukraine in Hanoi, to discuss sanctions, war, and the critical role of the private sector. U.S. Embassy Deputy Economic Counselor Konstantin Dubrovsky will moderate. Please register in advance.
