In view of Russia's incursion into Ukraine, the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) wishes to express its repulsion and condemnation of the use of violence as a means of conflict resolution in this case and any other. War is never the solution,; it only exacerbates problems, causes pain and creates innocent victims. Our thoughts are with the victims of so much violence, and we call on world authorities and international organizations to make every effort to end this bloodshed.
