The ISSA PULIRE NETWORK (IPN) has withdrawn its participation and support of the CleanExpo Moscow trade show.
Countries, businesses, and organisations worldwide are continuing to withdraw from Russia in protest at the country’s barbaric invasion of Ukraine. CleanExpo Moscow’s next event is scheduled to take place 22-24 November 2022.
IPN, which was founded by ISSA and Italian trade association Afidamp, requested that show organizer MVK (International Exhibition Company) remove the PULIRE brand and logo from all literature and materials related to the CleanExpo Moscow trade show.
IPN CEO, Toni D’andrea, said: “ISSA and IPN cannot proceed with the CleanExpo Moscow project given what is happening between Russia and Ukraine. We sincerely hope for a rapid and peaceful resolution of the conflict and that we may resume our working relationship with the Moscow event in the future.”
