It also has suspended staff missions to the country due to the tensions on the border between Russia and Ukraine. “The World Bank Group’s foremost priority is to keep our staff and their families safe. In line with our evacuation policy, temporary relocation of staff is underway and enhanced security measures are in place,” the World Bank memo said.
