Thursday, June 23, on the eve of four months from the start of the Russian offensive, it is an opportunity to return to the consequences of Western sanctions in Russia, where many brands have closed their doors.
After the Russian offensive in Ukraine, Westerners decided to close many of their stores in Russia. Thereby, Ikea or Coca-Cola have lowered the curtain in the country. Russia brings a patriotic response, as in Saint Petersburg where a message was made with the logo of the signs that closed: “We will replace you”, can we read on a panel.
While some brands have closed their doors, for Russian workers, Western sanctions also represent a real problem. Whether in terms of imports of raw materials or the difficulty of making international bank transfers, the consequences are harsh and numerous. For a Russian fashion designer, she had to rely on System D to continue making clothes. Thus, she had to recover a material originally used to make tea towels. Some inks for printing are also not found in Russia.
