FARGO, N.D. (AP) — A large North Dakota company is keeping close tabs on the situation in Ukraine, where thousands of people are fleeing the country as Russia continues to pound the capital and other cities with airstrikes and ground forces.

West Fargo-based Titan Machinery filed a report about Ukraine Friday with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which requires updates to announce major events that shareholders should know about.

“The well-being of the employees of Titan Machinery Ukraine, our wholly owned Ukraine subsidiary, is the Company’s primary concern and our team is providing as much support as possible to help them through this difficult situation,” Titan Machinery said in its statement to the SEC.

Titan Machinery owns and operates a network of over 70 full-service agriculture and construction equipment stores across eight states and four European countries. It has about 16 locations in Ukraine, almost exclusively located in the central and western areas.

Meanwhile, North Dakota’s congressional delegation is trying to help a farmer from Ashley who is currently detained in Ukraine. Kurt Groszhans has been accused of plotting to assassinate a senior official in the Ukrainian government. Sen. John Hoeven said before the invasion they succeeded in moving him to a nicer prison, KFYR-TV reported.

“But of course, our concern now is with the Russian invasion of the country. They should release him, let us get him out of there so we know he is safe because of this invasion,” Hoeven said.
