T2K spokespersons’ statement about the Russian Federation invasion of Ukraine

March 22, 2022

As spokespersons of the international scientific collaboration T2K, we are shocked by the Russian Federation’s brutal invasion of Ukraine and horrified by the suffering inflicted on the Ukrainian civil population. We would like to stress that the T2K experiment is built on the basis of international collaboration: the scientific successes we have achieved would not have been possible by one country working alone. We would like to offer our solidarity to all suffering directly or indirectly from these terrible events and to offer our support to the victims of this aggression and those that reject war as a way to solve human disagreements. T2K embraces science as an international endeavour and as a tool to improve human knowledge in peace and we strive to act following these human ideals.
