Hello,

Following on from the 3rd March Meetings held by economic development organizations globally; many organisations have started to pledge their committment to helping stop Putin's illegal war with Ukraine.

I ask that your organization make a public pledge today stating that you will:

- Not buy goods and services from Russian businesses.
- Not sell goods or services to Russian businesses.
- Replace Russian goods or services with those from Ukraine where possible.

I ask this not to punish normal Russian people, many of whom are good and also despite this war which was started by a petty tyrant; but to be part of the international movement to put massive pressure on the economy of Russia so that the war will come to an end through lack of resources.

“Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.”

PLEASE MAKE YOUR PLEDGE PUBLIC HERE ON THE INTERNATIONAL ECONOMIC DEVELOPERS WEBSITE: https://bit.ly/3KecjTK

500 companies from across the globe - small and large - have already signed the public pledge. It costs nothing but 2 minutes of your time.

If businesses across the globe commit to this action of refusing to do ANY business with Russia then we can bring this war to an end.

Please sign the public document today and add your organizations voice in ending the war.
