How Western brands 'left' Russia | Life in Russia after sanctions | New McDonald's & Starbucks

Does life in Russia after sanctions mean no more Western brands? I went to a typical Moscow mall and found many western products still available.

    It's not greed. Look I get they want to put sanctions on Russia to look good for the American market. But nobody cares. Mostly because the US was the cause of the war. It's all hypocrisy. Also I mean wanting a country to suffer and removing jobs from it's people just because the government is pretty stupid. Because they would lose all loyalty from said market after the war ends.

    As a Russian person living in Moscow, I must say that almost nothing has changed. Luxury brands that declared their withdrawal are still supplying their clothing and accessories into department stores and outlets. Well, they don’t supply parfumés and makeup, but that can be easily ordered through nearby countries. Indetex group is now working on reopening their stores ( they just do a rebranding, changing names of the stores 😂) The situation with cars is a bit more complicated, however if you want, you will buy a brand-new Mercedes in a partner dealership store.

    Russia might have claimed the physical properties of the leaving brands but not its major research capabilities as they were not stationed in Russia. The West lost nothing to Russia as we can just manufacture our stuff in other low wage countries, while keeping our research centers close at hand. Which major brands and products other then oil/gas has Russia developed which the rest of the world uses every day of their lives? Russia has a long way to go still to get relevant and feeling is what pains them in the end. Copycat a product is one thing. Develop a new one is something completely different. Ask China where they get their chip manufacturing equipment from.

    "So Coca-Cola managed to leave Russia and stay in Russia at the same time" Coke really said, *"I'm playing both sides, so that I always come out on top."* It's truly a big, missed opportunity for Stars Coffee to choose Stars Coffee as the name instead of *TSARBUCKS* Coffee. Like, hello? Tsarbucks was RIGHT there! It's more fitting for Russia, after all. Also, it's irony that potatoes for fries had to be imported to Russia, considering that Russia is famous for growing potatoes. And the thing about Coca-Cola HBC is they're originally a Greek company (H in HBC means Hellenic), and the reason they moved from Greece to Switzerland in the first place was because of the Greek economy, but by leaving Greece, they made the Greek economy worse (as they made up a fifth of the Athens stock market).

    When I was still in high school, my family lived in South Africa, where my dad's company explored for oil and gas during sanctions. Many Americans, British, Germans, and others were working in the industrial sector in South Africa. Many companies also left, but they stayed by forming new legal entities in Lichtenstein and other places. We didn't struggle to find anything; life was generally very good. I also had to participate in the national service program. I made many lifelong friends during that time and it was a good experience. We returned to the US in 1991.

    January 2021 with a Democrat in office the US started harming and stopping their own energy independence and ability to do oil exports, strange, Biden also started strategic fighting in the Middle East and going back to the use of their oil. No one seemed to notice. Why? His party is now giving around 20 billion to Ukraine and their very attractive ex-actor President and everything is back to Obama’s cold wars and high body count. Why? A pipeline between Russia and Germany spills oil into the water after being damaged. So much for going green. Yet, none of the three main countries involved have citizens allowed to freely speak or anything real on the regular news stations. Why? I don’t know much, but I know we were at peace before this. Well, not under Obama, we are like Obama runs things again after years of peace. Why? Probably best not to answer the rhetorical questions. At least in Russia the people know they don’t really know what’s going on and why. In America people have more options to know more about what’s going on, but they choose not to know and even mock those who want to talk beyond the pushed narratives when there is true freedom to speak. But forget what I’m saying that’s all hyperfocus on “Star Coffee” and not American news claiming Russia is going after who they consider Russians or Russia’s initial concerns with Democrat broken treaties by America in Ukraine. 🤷‍♀️ Personally I’m a pacifist, but a whole lot of people seemed baited into taking sides, do they really understand what they’re taking sides about? Do they know what’s real? Do they know what isn’t? Facts are not even who did what, just like how Ms get crossed out there is a whole lot of that type of thing going on. The only one that knows the full truth is God. Pray and ask him to put you on his side. Don’t assume you know what that is based on eyes that can be decided. Only God can clearly speak without self-promoting compromise or hidden agendas. Trust him and pray for the innocent not to be harmed, don’t cast spells like a witch praying your will be done, pray God’s will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven.

Армянск. там особо разнообразия нет, но на атане можно было что угодно вкусное и необычное добыть, а потом постепенно забугорщина стала везде появляться) а на соседнем ТЭСе успешно продавали украинские вкусняшки, вплоть до 18-19 года. особенно лимонад биола радовал. вот этому лимонаду аналогов в России так и не нашла :(

    Sanctions are useful if the people putting on the sanctions actually sanctioned serious goods, and secondly if the sanctions actually have the will to enforce the sanctions. Western Europe has no ethics and will close an eye to any sale, no matter how ruthless or awful the dictator is. As an example Germany was caught violating Iran sanctions so often I think the world gave up trying to reign Germany in. Even though Germany was selling them missile parts.

    @@bor1saz Попробую объяснить максимально сжато. Большинству россиян не всралась эта война десять лет в обед, протестов было бы в десятки раз больше, если бы не власть полиции, которая была взрощена для того, чтобы бороться с терроризмом в нулевых, а теперь борется со своим же населением - к сожалению происходило это всё плавно и еле заметно, но теперь есть как есть. Сравнения с украинскими или грузинскими протестами неуместны, так как там была полиция сравнимая с полицей России в 90х и начале 00х - уровень организации, умение разгонять протесты и жёсткость наказания совершенно разные. Плюс, к сожалению, люди в целом есть и всегда были очень падки на влияние извне - когда-то это была религия, сегодня СМИ. Вот у нас СМИ льют в уши про то, что в Украине ещё даже до Крыма люди хотели "москаляку на гиляку" и что НАТО вот-вот пойдёт войной на нас, и видит Украину как плацдарм. Доля правды в этих вещах, конечно, есть, но в общем и целом мы понимаем, что это херня. В то же время украинцам видимо втирают, что русские хотят заживо есть украинских младенцев, мечтают о ядерном пепле и т.д. - опять же, такие уроды имеются, но в рамках страны их единицы (хороший пример - случай с Красовским и как негативно на его слова отреагировали остальные "патриоты" и даже СК хочет завести дело). Ну и потом вот эта взаимная неприязнь начинает воздействовать друг на друга и мы имеем то, что имеем. Могу сказать только, что даже самые zеданутые ура-патриоты не хотят смерти украинцам, они просто либо не верят в их смерти, либо считают, что это война была незбежна и либо происходит сегодня в меньшем масштабе на Украине, либо в течение 10-20 лет в разы масштабнее уже на территории России.

    Considering that the store clerk said the Apple products aren’t made for the Russian market, this sounds like a gray import from a neighboring country to me. This would also explain the insane prices. The situation with Adidas looked similar to me. And if a company sells its Russian presence to a Chinese company, I’m not sure if that Chinese company really acts as a middleman as opposed to just getting the products directly at the source and selling as essentially unlicensed copies. So, some of these examples don’t look that clear-cut to me.

    I think the ultimate conclusion is that no brand is really completely pulling out from Russia. If they truly pulled out, it might look more like the brands would refuse to sell anything to Russia. But if they tear the store down but still find a way to supply to newly renamed stores, the profit loss is minimal. So probably in the mind of American consumers they might think that brands are really pulling out but most have found a loophole to continue staying and selling their products. Some of it may be speculative but it’s true, companies don’t like to lose money so I wouldn’t be surprised if the newly renamed stores were just a different branch of the company.

    Somewhere around the 8 minute mark you hit the nail on the head. The companies sold their name to Chinese brands in order to change the names and then still gain revenue. Making a decision to cut off an entire store is a large financial mistake, so to hide it all they loan it out and pull it back when all of the stuff is over. I always feel bad for the workers, though, who have to answer political questions though.

    I would also assume that rather than selling the brand, they're just renting the brand rights to Chinese or local businessmen and will go back immediately once the air clears. As far as I can see, at least some of the brands did a legit pull out (McDonald's, Starbucks, Uniqlo).

    You can’t stop the product from being available, but you can increase the price. I used to work for an apparel company that didn’t have a Russian distributor 15 years ago and even then it was obvious some shops would just buy huge orders at retail price from our online store and mark them up insanely high in Moscow. The large split between middle and upper class allows for this type of consumer. I didn’t see this with any other countries around the world where we didn’t have an official distributor.

    I disagree about the exclusion of Russian athletes from international competitions if they represent their country of origin. While unfortunate for them, you still need to show a message about how war is drifting apart the nations. At the same time, plenty of competitions allow for Russian participation as long as the flag isn't shown. A lot of the time sports competitions are also regarded as competition between countries, even if it's realistically just a game of statistics at the top level. Also, there's been plenty of scandals prior, especially something like the Russian team doping en masse for the Sochi winter Olympics. Doping rules can be somewhat hypocritical though, considering that it's the name of the game in virtually any sport. You can't be top tier without juicing something. The point though is that there's plenty of international tension regarding these athletic competitions, which will invariably bring substantial changes due to major events like the Russian invasion of Ukraine. There's no wrong answer to this, and at the same time no right answer. Nobody gets what they "deserve" in life, so I don't see why athletes specifically need to get a chance to prove their hard work.

    ​@@leonrothen why aren't USA athletes excluded from sport events? USA invaded third of this planet and messed up so many countries and caused so many deaths, why aren't there no sanctions for USA? Genocide in Vietnam, ni sanctions, illegal bombing of Serbia, no sanctions, what they did to all those countries in middle east and still no sanctions. You are so hypocritical.
