Hello @VitVolk1

Where is this event being held?
Is this an in real life event or a virtual event?

Hi Julie, we held the graduation event in a hybrid mode, across a couple of in person locations (Zagreb, Croatia and Moscow) as well virtually (many of our students and teachers joined us virtually) and wanted to provide our students with a proof of attendance for their memories. Thank you.

Hello @VitVolk1

Thank you for the additional context. I will take this info to the Curators and get back to you with a response.

Unfortunately, because your community is located in Russia, we will not be able to process your POAP petition due to current US Sanctions = OFAC-sanctioned countries :pensive:

For your reference:

All the best,
The POAP Curation Body

Dear Julie,

That would be a big mistake. Our school is located on the territory belonging to the US Embassy in Moscow and thus on US soil. What you are essentially saying is that a US Embassy school located on US Embassy soil in Russia where the majority of students are diplomatic and international business students who are not Russian citizens is being penalized because of your incorrect interpretation and fear of sanctions. Is that really what this community is about? Thank you for reconsidering.

Hello @VitVolk1

I will pass this info back to the Curators for a final determination concerning this petition.

Hi Julie, do you have any updates on this topic?

Hello @VitVolk1

This is being researched by our legal team. I will get back to you with any updates
