But Geneva-based organization will retain ties with Joint Institute for Nuclear Research.

“The decision to end the cooperation agreement was taken in December 2023 when CERN’s Council passed a resolution “to terminate the International Cooperation Agreement between CERN and the Russian Federation, together with all related protocols and addenda, with effect from 30 November 2024; To terminate … all other agreements and experiment memoranda of understanding allowing the participation of the Russian Federation and its national institutes in the CERN scientific programme, with effect from 30 November 2024; AFFIRMS That these measures concern the relationship between CERN and Russian and Belarusian institutes and do not affect the relationship with scientists of Russian nationality affiliated with other institutes.” The cooperation agreement with Belarus will come to an end on 27 June, before the Russian one ends.”

    From the link:

    Since its founding in 1954, high-energy physics laboratory CERN has been a flagship for international scientific collaboration. That commitment has been under strain since the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022. CERN decided to cut ties with Moscow late last year over deaths resulting from the country’s “unlawful use of force” in the ongoing conflict.

    What a shame for those scientists. I hope they are able to leave Russia and continue collaborating internationally on their work. Maybe they can even come back to CERN if the establish residency in another country

      I combed that article and couldn’t find a reason, I’m with you. I think it’s due to Ukraine, but it’s not confirmed.

        The contract ends November 30th and Cern isn’t renewing with the Russians. You pasted the answer in the post description.
