I don't get it. Why the Russians are so paranoid about NATO? There is no reason to worry. We don't want to harm them. We are the good guys. We just need to protect our-self from them. So, why they are reacting like this?

Really took that long? Garbage food, with garbage soda, will be forgotten the same way

So Russians have less diarrhea now? Isn't that helping their war efforts

Burger King and KFC still have restaurants in operation in Russia. Shame on them.

This is either going drive Russia over the edge or cause a celebration.

Hardly a noble gesture on their part. More like caving to public pressure.

Finally!!!!

Make Russia Healthy Again!

That's really brutality more than the war on Ukraine

Woot! Woot! I was boycotting McDonald’s and Coca-Cola past few days when I heard they weren’t temporarily closing

McDonald’s is not healthy & pricy plus it tears down family discipline.

Can they do that here in Canada too?

More pull out of Russia the better,just hope they never go back.

Are they still in Saudi Arabia? Oh.. 🤔

They got a lot of pressure from customers.

I have a serious Question.... Why doesn't McDonald's bring back the McRib (if only in Palm Springs) and give a lifetime supply to TFG? Donny boy wouldn't last a week if they did, eh?

With the rouble trading at less than a cent on the dollar how can they turn a profit now?

They have declared a no-fry zone

Holly Shit Balls, really 😳👍

Announced the same day we received coupons in the mail.

'The U.S.-based chain said it will continue to pay salaries of the 62,000 Russian employees who will be affected by the closure'. Now that is something to talk about!!! Bravo McDonald's!😀

What took so long ?

Finally !

That's strange. How many fortune 500 fork China will join this list?

Mcdonalds doesnt want to make money in russia. Do russians not see that their leaders are in the wrong when capitalist companies wont operate over their country’s invasions? Citizens of Russia need to revolt.

About time!!!

Good! They should do this worldwide!!!

Took long enough

No more obesity in Russia.

It’s about time!!

The should have been one of the first, but I don't imagine many Russians are beating the doors down to buy their Burgers, at this time and for quite a long time!

I mean the people of Russia will be bringing in wheelbarrows of Rubels to just pay for a hamburger anyways so….

So they’re helping them ?

Good on them!!!

There we have it people, nobody likes war!

Everyone’s making stupid comments. But know it’s important to cut off Russia’s economy as much as we can. It’s the only way to cease this war without direct physical conflict between forces.

CocaCola you need to do the same!

Coca-Cola Taco bell Burger King You're up!

FINALLY!

Hopefully Burger King will be next

The Mc Dictator no longer available with a side of lies

So they’re doing Russia a favour.

What ! No Bolshoi Mak ? Dang, back to healthy eating

Good. Now I can go back to not eating McDonald's for all the other reasons.

We are tired of seeing the horror of Ukrainians dying in their homes in their streets. We are tired of the endless suffering Ukrainians are being inflicted with daily. We demand our governments to act! NATO email your politicians and demand action now! UkraineUnderAttaсk
