New international travel form aims to better serve NU travelers

(1/10/2020)

Effective in January 2020, University of Nebraska faculty and staff will be asked to complete a new electronic questionnaire prior to all international travel that will help ensure a consistent approval and reimbursement process across the NU system.

In order to prepare for this process, please be sure to log in to NuRamp at https://nuramp.nebraska.edu login using your TrueYou credentials.

The questionnaire, already in place at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, will soon go live at the University of Nebraska at Omaha, University of Nebraska at Kearney, and University of Nebraska Medical Center, as well as for University of Nebraska Central Administration. All faculty and staff seeking to travel should continue to submit their requests through Concur as they currently do. Beginning in January, when the intended destination is outside the United States, a questionnaire will be automatically generated through NuRamp, the new administrative platform being implemented across University of Nebraska campuses.

The NuRamp platform will then send the employee a link to the questionnaire. The brief questionnaire – much of which will be automatically populated from Concur travel requests – will ask for information on the purpose of the travel, whether items are being shipped, and so on.

Once the employee completes the questionnaire, it will be routed to the export control office on the appropriate campus for approval.

The process aims to ensure that employees are advised on appropriate travel requirements, including any necessary documentation for shipped items; that they have access to university-provided resources like travel insurance and travel alerts; and that they are reimbursed for their travel. A standard electronic format will also ensure efficiency and consistency across NU campuses.

If faculty and staff have questions, they are invited to contact Sam Padilla at (402) 559-9328 or [email protected]

Ukraine hits Moscow in largest drone strike since war began

Ukraine on Tuesday hit the Moscow region in series of drone strikes that killed one woman, destroyed dozens of homes and forced some 50 flights to be rerouted from the Russian capital, reporting by Reuters confirmed. 

The attack on Moscow was reportedly the largest drone strike levied by Kyiv at Russia since the war began more than two and half years ago. 

Russia, which has heavily relied on drones and missiles in its assault against Ukraine and routinely pummels Kyiv with a barrage of aerial assaults, said it destroyed at least 20 Ukrainian drones over the Moscow region along with another 124 across eight other regions.

BLINKEN CONFIRMS IRAN SUPPLYING RUSSIA WITH SHORT-RANGE BALLISTIC MISSILES

Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov suggested the attacks levied at the Russian capital, which has a population of some 21 million, were not legitimate military targets.

"There is no way that nighttime strikes on residential neighborhoods can be associated with military action," he told reporters. "The Kyiv regime continues to demonstrate its nature. 

"They are our enemies and we must continue the special military operation to protect ourselves from such actions," he said, perpetuating the term used by Moscow to describe its invasion of Ukraine. 

Kyiv has not yet commented on the overnight strike, but reportedly said Russia attacked it with some 46 drones, 38 of them destroyed by Ukrainian defenses. 

U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken said on Tuesday he will travel to Ukraine along with British Foreign Secretary David Lammy to meet with their Ukrainian counterpart and President Volodymyr Zelenskyy later this week.

"It’s a critical moment to what is an intense, all-fighting season," Blinken told reporters. "With Russia continuing to escalate its aggression – aggression against civilians, against critical infrastructure, and, of course, against Ukrainian forces – we see it ramping up its attacks on cities, people, in particular, targeting the energy infrastructure."

Blinken pointed to Russian President Vladimir Putin’s "playbook" for weaponizing Ukraine’s energy infrastructure amid the cold winter months, as he has done the last two years, and said this upcoming trip reflects the U.S. and NATO’s commitment to ensuring Ukraine can defend itself against Russian attacks. 

ROMANIA AND LATVIA CONFIRM INCURSIONS BY RUSSIAN DRONES INTO NATO AIRSPACE

It is unclear what specifically will be addressed during the Blinken-Lammy visit this week, though Ukrainian Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal echoed concerns addressed by the U.S. secretary of state on Tuesday and said some 85% of Ukraine’s energy infrastructure is protected against anticipated Russian attacks, reported the Kyiv Independent . 

Ukrainians across the country, including in Kyiv, have been living with intermittent blackouts for months following Russia’s intense campaign against Ukraine’s energy infrastructure in March – during which a reported 80% of thermal generating capacity of the nation’s largest private energy company, DTEK, was damaged or destroyed.

Energy officials in June were sounding the alarm that Ukrainians may only have access to electricity for as little as six hours a day during this upcoming winter, depending on how much of the grid can be repaired. 

Shmyhal on Tuesday did not specify how much of the grid has been restored or what lengths of power outages Ukrainians may be forced to endure this winter. 

Instead, he highlighted the efforts being made to secure Ukraine’s energy industry and said the Ukrainian government had allocated some $461 million to protect energy facilities while an additional $315 million had been provided by foreign allies.
