We stand with Ukraine
Whilst Russia continues to be classified as a state sponsor of terrorism there will be a zero trade policy in effect for any Russian entity or any entity we have reason to believe is supporting such Russian entities. To achieve this we withdrew our online license purchase capability, to be able to manage it directly (Withdrawal of online JEMH Server license purchase). Any Russian entity found to have obtained a license will have done so in violation of this policy and will be ineligible for any support.
