Burger King on Friday said that its business partner controlling approximately 800 restaurants in Russia has "refused" to suspend operations in the country.We contacted the main operator of the business and demanded the suspension of Burger King restaurant operations in Russia.

Burger King has started the process to divest its ownership stake, but "it is clear that it will take some time to do so based on the terms of our existing joint venture agreement," Shear said. Restaurant Brands International in the meantime has suspended all corporate support for the Russian market, including operations and supply chain support.

That's actually kinda funny 🤣🤣

Well…not ever going to that place again. I don’t go often however except when traveling

The King still rules, you cannot despise him of his whopperdom

I'll have the 'Filet of Putin'......

Why should it? Burger King is not even AMERICAN! Canadian

What people don't understand is that the Burger Kingdom is not an absolute monarchy. The Condiment Lords and Earls of Sandwich still wield power over their individual fryfdoms.

There would be a partnership agreement - terminate it.

Boycott Burger King.
