Dear Lithuanian Mathematical Society, dear professor Štikonas,

 

We would like to ask for your support of the call of Ukrainian mathematicians to suspend the membership of the Russian mathematical societies in the EMS until the end of the war in our country. 

 

Early in March a group of Ukrainian mathematicians wrote a letter on this topic to the leadership of the EMS. As the EMS denied our call, on March 20 the presidents of the Ukrainian mathematical societies wrote another letter to the Editor of the EMS Magazin. This was about the time when the world learned about atrocities of the Russian army in Kyiv region and the first cases of genocide were evidenced. Thousands more people have died, were wounded and tortured since then in our country. After two months the letter was published by the EMS magazine. 

 

We hope you will find sufficient arguments in the two above mentioned letters. Please write to the EMS and support our call. We sincerely believe that sanctions against Russia could stop the war and academic organizations shouldn’t be an exemption. Let’s clarify this to the leadership of the EMS.

 

Sincerely,

 

Yuri Drozd, President of the Ukrainian Mathematical Society, Corresponding Member of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine

 Laiškas EMS 

Dear Mr President,
Dear Executive Board of the EMS,

We are writing on behalf of the Lithuanian mathematicians.

Early in March a group of Ukrainian mathematicians wrote a letter on this topic to the leadership of the EMS. On March 20 the presidents of the Ukrainian mathematical societies wrote another letter to the Editor of the EMS Magazine. After two months the letter was published by the EMS magazine https://euromathsoc.org/magazine/articles/90

Ukrainian mathematicians wrote a separate letter to the Lithuanian Mathematical Society asking to support their initiative to suspend the activities of the Russian Mathematical Societies:
“We would like to ask for your support of the call of Ukrainian mathematicians to suspend the membership of the Russian mathematical societies in the EMS until the end of the war in our country.”

The Council (Board) of the Lithuanian Mathematical Society considered this issue and stated that the Lithuanian Mathematical Society supports the application of the Ukrainian Mathematicians for the suspension of the Russian Mathematical Societies at EMS until the end of the war in Ukraine.

We hope that in the future, after the end of the war, the Russian Mathematical Societies will be able to continue its activities at EMS.

Sincerely,

President of Lithuanian Mathematical Society
Artūras Štikonas
