The European University at St Petersburg (EUSP) has been forced to stop operating because of some fire safety violations….
Of course this seems to be a politically motivated move of the Russian authorities especially since the University has close connections to the USA and EU.

A petition of support is available for signing here. The least we can do, I suppose.
