Ukrainian official urges Apple, Google, Twitter, others to cut Russian ties

The vice prime minister of Ukraine said Friday on Twitter that he asked Apple Inc. Chief Executive Tim Cook to stop doing business with Russia and its citizens, including by cutting off that country’s access to the App Store. Saturday, he tweeted and his office confirmed that he has asked other tech giants to do the same.

Saturday, Fedorov’s office said in response to a MarketWatch request for comment that the letter is authentic: “We are not hacked. This is official position and messages we want to share.” Fedorov’s office also said that Twitter “agreed to block registration of new accounts in Russian Federation. Important to win information war and counter Russian propaganda.”

Apple AAPL, +1.30% did not return a request for comment about Fedorov’s request Friday. Cook tweeted Thursday that he is “deeply concerned with the situation in Ukraine. We’re doing all we can for our teams there and will be supporting local humanitarian efforts.”
