EBRD regains control of Twitter accounts

The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) confirms that the Twitter accounts @EBRD and @EBRDGreen were hacked this morning and used to post malicious and racist messages.

We would like to apologise for any offence caused by the racist content of some of the tweets issued while the accounts were hacked.

We have now regained full control of our Twitter accounts and are investigating the previous issue.

As an international organisation, the EBRD is proud of the diversity of its workforce from dozens of countries and regards support for inclusion, diversity and equality as core principles of its mandate.
