STATEMENT FROM THE INTERNATIONAL ACADEMY OF TELEVISION ARTS & SCIENCES

March 25, 2022

In support of Ukraine, the Executive Committee of the International Academy has decided to bar all programs from Russia from this year’s International Emmy® Awards competition. This follows the previously announced action of suspending memberships, as well as all formal affiliations with Russia-based companies.

Therefore, any program that meets the following criteria is ineligible and, if already submitted, will be withdrawn:
• All programs produced by and/or co-produced with Russia-based companies
• All programs originally made for a Russian-owned channel, network, or streaming platform
