The owner of the fast-food brand says there are "no new updates" on its pledge to leave Russia.

      I simply don’t get this mentality. I’m sure you do realize, that companies such as Microsoft still operate in Russia. You think all people over there are running Linux? Aside from how unbelievably stupid your take is, guess they are traitors too. But you’ll still keep using their OS and Office suite for millenia to come.

        MS stopped selling licenses last year and blocked the ones operating this year (non renewal). But I get your point, only not all the big companies stayed

          What exactly did they block? You can still buy any Microsoft product in Russia, your online subscriptions are still billed in rubles, you can pay them from any card Visa or Mastercard accept. As of now there are no problems at all with Microsoft products in Russia.

              Sorry, don’t get your point. A company may say one thing like Burger King said they will dump Russia. The reality at least currently with both Burger King and Microsoft is another thing.

                Since I’m not living in Russia I can’t tell you what exactly is happening there but I can read what they told the world (with no one telling it’s false)
