Ukraine is asking ethically and socially responsible global businesses to stop or suspend operations with or in Russia, thereby refusing to finance its violence, murders and crimes against humanity, Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba said.

"Ukraine requests the ethically and socially responsible global businesses to stop or suspend operations with or in Russia, therefore refusing to finance its violence, murders, and crimes against humanity," he said on Twitter.

The minister stressed that as soon as Ukraine wins this war, the government will start rebuilding the infrastructure and economy, continuing the path of reforms to become a full member of the EU.

"In this regard, I would like to invite your company to express solidarity with Ukraine and join other multinational companies that have already publicly expressed their willingness to start or resume business in my country," Kuleba said.

In addition, he asked relevant companies to provide support to Ukraine and its people in a financial, humanitarian or any other meaningful way.
