You love to see it

Paid billions of dollars to keep the agenda going... they were compensated well by the WEF...

Collective withdrawal in Russia.

Now that's news

I am sure that has Putin shaking in his boots!

Wow! Big Loss! BOO HOO! One Less Of Them Racist Corporation In Russia. I Bet That Starbucks Found Out That There Was No Black People In Russia And They Got So Bored Because They Could Not Get Black People Arrested For Going To The Can Without Buying A Mortgage On A Carbofrapp🤣🤣

Yahoooo

👍

Not a bad thing. The less American culture you gave in house, the better off you’ll be. Hope someone wrote down the recipe for overpriced coffee.

Ya but they still gonna operate on Saudia Arabia just without a women in the logo. Virtue signalling at its finest

They can leave Canada as well with their overpriced so called coffee......

Disgusting! ABOUT DAMN TIME! Anything for money!

It has been progressively closing stores in Canada and raising prices simultaneously.

Yet my cousin had Starbucks today

Now do us

Russia is going green with all those Starbuck’s and McDonald’s drive thru’s getting shut down. And hurting two purveyors of poison from America. No problem with that at all.

Good! Now all other American businesses should do the same and Canada should follow.

Good isolate the hell out of that country, cut all ties, close their borders down

Though I loathe Starbucks coffee, good on them! Way to put your moral compass where your profit was. peace

I can appreciate what these corporations are doing buy leaving Russia but I cannot help but worry about the people who have worked there what is going to happen to them :/

Good. Their logo is disgusting

My only question is what took them so long?

Where Russians get overpriced coffee now ?

The virtue signalling is glorious. No way some Russian businesses will pick up a new franchise for pennies on the dollar. And btw, the Rubel is trading pre COVID. Guess that 💩didn’t work either?

actually Starbucks horrible coffee is something that Russia deserves.

And shareholders still invest in this company?

Starbucks sucks anyway. Can I have a coffee with just cream? No we dont have cream. But you have whipped cream can you put that in black coffee? No that's not on the menu.

Finally!

Good for them

Now two of the worst place you can shop are closed: McDoanal and Starsucks

Time for competition to move in

yaaaassssssssss! Thank you SB! In honour of this- I will be purchasing a Starbucks latte today.

But continue their agressive Union Busting mandates in the US

A bold, leadership move for Starbucks!! Well done.

That's a start but they also need to work on labour relations.

It’s garbage coffee .. ur doing them a favor

Hey BurgerKing, what’s stopping you? If McDonalds and Starbucks can do it, why not you? Ditto for any other western company still operating in Russia.

Oh wow ! McDonald's is closing as well. I guess people are screwed for coffee in the morning. lol

Did Russian Starbucks display pride flags in their stores? Russia is largely anti-LGBT so I wonder... If Starbucks had to hide their brand's values of inclusion just to make a profit on the global market... Does that show integrity? Is it even a brand we should support at home?

As long as Starbucks continues its union-busting in Canada & the US, I guess it's okay👍

arrive hat

Now do Canada

How will Russia survive

Wow, that'll show Russia. I'll bet Putin will cry himself to sleep tonight.
