REUTERS/Anton VaganovSept 16 - Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said on Friday he had spoken to Nike Inc and thanked the U.S. sportswear maker for making what he called the "right decision" to pull out of Russia.

"This is an example of how business can play a significant role in protecting humanity and freedom," he said in a nightly video address. "If a state chooses the path of terror, it is the duty of every self-respecting company to distance itself from such a state." The Ukrainian leader provided no further details. Nike officials were not immediately available for comment.Russia calls its actions in Ukraine a “special operation.”

Nike told Reuters on June 23 that it was making a full exit from Russia, after saying in March it would temporarily suspend operations at all its Nike-owned and -operated stores in Russia in response to Moscow's actions in Ukraine.

The real news was when Adidas left Russia. What are they going to wear now?

有用吗?只是用于宣传!

Russia definitely will loose the war without nikki shoes . Im sure 😊

Did Adidas leave?

Nike quietly extends new models in Russia. Zelensky probably sniffed the extra dose again.

😂 😂

Why special congratulations to Nike? What about the others who left Russia much earlier?

Nike taking moral high ground whilst it uses non unionised neoliberal governed puppet states to assemble its products🤣🤣. The west is an actual joke.

Li Ning and Xtep too!!

Nike produces shoes. Opportunity for other shoe companies to explore Russian shoe market. Nike exits a country of over 145million people

What a nonsense. On the one hand, Nike profits from slave labor, on the other hand, Nike plays its script of its good business. What hypocrisy.

Nike. ‘Just done it’ Better late than never.

They will get cheaper and better shoes from China 🇨🇳

Live look at zelensky:

shame. the Russian army needs good running shoes

I can just imagine the new nike in Moscow now like the McDonald's they took over hahahah. This should be funny.

Nike products are made with slave and exploited labor but at least they have some standards.
