Russia said it could seize the assets of Western companies that have suspended operations in the country.

Dozens of American, European and Japanese companies from almost every sector of the economy have abandoned joint ventures, factories, stores and offices in the last two weeks in response to Russia's invasion of Ukraine and the ensuring sanctions. The sanctions have hit most of Russia's financial sector, including its central bank, trashed the Russian currency and are likely to trigger a sovereign debt default and deep recession.

Most businesses are announcing a temporary suspension while maintaining jobs and wages, and we will be closely monitoring this situation," he added. The exodus of companies includes iconic consumer and tech brands such as McDonalds , Coca-Cola and Apple , as well as leading Big Oil groups such as BP and Shell . They were joined Thursday by Goldman Sachs , the first major bank since the war started to say it was winding down its activities in the country entirely.

土匪!笑話!

I hope they 'booby.trap.' it all before they leave then.

please do it

The United States and Europe froze Russian money abroad. They froze Russian assets and property. They have the right to do the same, although the US and Europe stole a lot more. The best way out for Russia is to drop atomic bombs on Europe and the United States.

A bunch of ice cream machines left behind from the 850 McDonald's restaurants that shut down. You think these companies care about the risk of losing certain material assests🤣🤣Please! Adolf Putin did this and unfortunately the citizens have to pay for his wreckless decisions.

Same thing what the communists did in Romania in 1948. The story is repeating. The main character is the same. 🙈 Instead of going forward we go backward. Quo Vadis Domine?

Whom the gods would destroy, they first make mad.

Esto me suena conocido

What will happen when he show people the facts behind 9/11?

Ukrainians are fooled by Yidiots to fight Fratricidal RussiaUkraineWar to start WW3, 3d Final (after WW1 & WW2) Genocide of all 900m WhiteChristianRace and 300m WhiteLand Colored Invaders Legal is Undiverse HolyCitizen KingdomOfGod PrimeMinister BREAKINGNEWS

These wars are made by cowards that will never risk their own lives. When are these people going to stop behaving like psychopaths? Humanity should adopt their own free will and not follow mad orders in every aspect!!!

That’s what I’m talking about, show them who’s boss, those idiots don’t even know what they’re doing, they’re had been a fight between 2 countries what’s your busses in that, suspending your business in the country, means you’re involved

nice job

nonsense. and too late they will get back before western Lifting Sanctions,

Good move Russia. If idiots in US and Europe can sieze property in 'a place where right to own property must be respected' you go ahead to do it too. It should scare people to invest in Europe. How do you seize Abramovic's assets just because he knows Putin? Total idiots!

greg_stealth Western countries are seizing Russian business so I don’t know why people are surprised

F*k it. Companies are not people. And there is enough money and resources to serve all people of we do it right and in solidarity.

Bully for Bully,

Russia said it could seize the assets of Western companies that have suspended operations in the country. Go ahead thug slug! Your days are numbered. The world sees you, you are a legend in your own mind.

Tit for tat

If Putin wonders what the long-term effect of that would be he need only look at Cuba’s example of seizing American assets. 60 years later and they’re still not forgiven.

IStandWithPutin istandwithrussia

Support Putin the Great

เอาละเว้ย สงครามแบบใหม่

I have no fucks left to give

McDonald’s fryers should bring a pretty rubel.

No hay dia que no hable de Putin. Es la maquinaria de desinformación mundial del gobierno de USA y lo peor, que el mundo les cree como si lo que dicen fuera la verdad absoluta. Para creer una noticia es necesario saber la verdad de ambos lados, informense con ActualidadRT

But you will have no money to use them. With the sanctions how are you going to prop up a diminishing economy, feed poverty-stricken people and pay for a war. Stupid child killer.

开门招商,关门打狗

Correction: Putin and the oligarchs will sieze and add to their obscene wealth. Russian people will not benefit at all.

Russia can start produce good quality products and sell over the world. Hell, if Russia copies any product, who will ever go to them and complaint.

CNN your reporting is so anti-Russia why? You are not helping the American people make a form decision about their government’s involvement in a war by labeling it as a fight for democracy when we can’t even get Voting Rights legislation through congress!

That’s called theft

McRuski burger. IStalin phone. Lol. Russia needs to make stuff like China. Be self sufficient.

They better withdraw it somewhere offshore quick before Putin makes up his mind

You idiot putin stop this old ideology its never work . World is going new generation. I see weight on more on new generation. Its human who make you sharp ,.. they know how to crush when not in use , i mean when not use means it destruct in nature , i see putin situation ?

American missile system 'Javelin' in the Donetsk region - rs,rs,rs,rs,rs,rs. What happened to the bearer? rs,rs,rs,rs,rs,rs

Seize the McDonalds and start selling McVlads. (It’s the secret sauce.)

Not if they want those companies to ever return. Empty threats

If west could seized Russian property. Russia should seized theirs too. Why not.. it’s absolutely fair..

Now we are seeing face to face the Chief of the International mafia: Vladimir Putin

Obviously Putin war is not encouraging for companies functions

Lol funniest thing I’ve heard for ages. What the fuck they going to do with a bunch of iPhone shops and 900 McDonald’s shops lol. What idiot has money invested in Russia.? Oh yea greedy fecking westerners in the oil and gas industry. Fuck em don’t care

Democracy must show courage. it is terrible to see that a country, a nation which participated in the liberation of Europe in the Second World War decides to break a peace for 77 years... 77years … StopRussia

Isä aurikoinen siinä tutkii ahväärejä... Hyvältähän se näyttää... Antaa palaa

Well…I don’t give a fuck?!?!

Once they take them over, they will fail.

He’s destroying Ukrainian infrastructure and killing people.

Putin is mad, he means business and the world should keep an eye on him before it escalates into world war 3

Go ahead, that'll keep russia going for perhaps a day

This is why western companies should never do business with Russia. They have no respect for justice or laws

That would be the nail in the coffin

Go RUSSIA 🇷🇺 👏 💪

McDonald's go ahead. That will kill Russians too but slowly.

Putin Days are counted

This bomb is not in Ukraine. It is in Yemen. The criminal here is America, Saudi Arabia and Britain. In this bomb, hundreds of families were killed. If you have feelings, expose the war crimes against all human beings.

War Criminal.

War criminal and thief...💩
