Нет, не просто. На данный момент на Россию наложено 18772 санкции, на все сектора российской экономики. Не все иностранные компании ушли добровольно и с радостью. Им тоже пригрозили санкциями, и проблемами с бизнесом. Поймите, против России идёт настоящая экономическая война стран НАТО. Но мы справляемся. Российская экономика оказалась очень устойчивой. Решения по импортозамещению быстро принимались, и воплощались в жизнь. В российскую экономику вливались большие средства, они у России есть, слава богу. Были найдены новые торговые партнёры, и рынки. Работа ведётся серьезная. Санкции и контрсанкции также ударили и по Европе. Она лишилась дешёвого газа и нефти, которыми её снабжала Россия десятилетиями. Бесперебойно. В Европе сейчас серьезные проблемы. У русских есть пословица: "Не рой яму другому, сам в неё угодишь". Что и случилось с Европой.

В последствии они вступили в кооперацию с KFC на территории РФ и стали вести бизнес совместно. А в 2010г. KFC вышли с предложением выкупить долю Ростикса для того чтоб далее вести бизнес в РФ самостоятельно. После чего они достаточно успешно развились и до 2022г. открыли более 1.000 точек. А в 2022г., после введения санкций против России, KFC якобы продают весь свой бизнес сторонним инвесторам, у которых, по случайной случайности были свои рестораны KFC , но с условием что они этот бизнес будут вести под брендом Rostics's. Не исключаю, что ребята из KFC вспомнили о своих старых партнёрах и тем самым с их помощью продолжили свой бизнес в РФ.

Разве страна со 140 миллионами жителей не имеет возможности производить большую часть продуктов питания, которые потребляет ее население? В моей стране десять миллионов, и мы производим большую часть! Санкции были направлены не против российского народа, а против конкретных людей и конкретных технологий, но всегда есть черный рынок, который нужно обойти, он дороже для конечного потребителя, от этих сделок выигрывает больше людей. Моя страна из ЕС продолжает экспортировать и импортировать товары с Россией. Некоторые транснациональные корпорации, опасаясь санкций со стороны своих клиентов, решили отказаться от бизнеса в России, но так как они работают по капиталистической логике, покупая дешево в Китае и продавая под своим брендом гораздо дороже, то они легко заменимы, просто скажите китайцам, чтобы они менялись. меняются этикетки и покупатели, которых они производят и продают. Предприятия продолжают работать с санкциями или без них... Этот супермаркет принадлежит французской сети АШАН, и он там работает до сих пор...

I had lived in Moscow for a few years from 2016 and I do still spend my holidays there,it’s fair assessment though the only thing is that as a younger person I do like sport wear more and in regards to Nike,UA,Reebok etc. For these it has been bit more difficult and slight more expensive to get the things I used able to before. Other than there isn’t any particular difference maybe food products have also become slightly more costly but in fairness that is most countries.

There is no possibility the western sanction could work on Russia as long as China is its friend. The sanction will help Russia by giving a chance to build up new indigenous industries to meet the national needs.

No that would work in China, not in Russia. But they imported a lot of Western technologies so will still use them to produce products of at least medium quality.

you are absolutely right that the food industry has not changed because it is not under sanctions, but on the other hand pressure has been put on the Russian economy. this means there are lots of goods in the shops but people don't buy the goods, and when the shops don't get to sell their goods they don't make any money, and then eventually can't afford to buy new goods, this will take between 3-5 years before disaster strikes for real. by December 2024, you will see a completely different Russia.

The only thing I noticed in terms of sanctions is increased cost of car parts and automotive oil. I have 4 japanese cars and prices increased approximately two times. Parts availabilty didn't change. There are still plenty of options. The other stuff I really didn't notice at all. Those brands who left the country I didn't buy before war anyway, so I don't care they left or not. I never eat fast food or any western junk food, so didn't notice any change either.

Обращаюсь к европейцам и американцам. Бренды поменялись, но по большому счету на простых людей санкции никак не повлияли. Европейские и американские компании потеряли рынки сбыта, их место заняли российские компании и китайцы. В этом сила рыночной экономики и капитализма, американцам ли этого не знать. У нас нет никаких идеологических противоречий, просто у глобального запада вековая идея фикс развалить Россию и контролировать ее ресурсы и транспортные коридоры. Эти богатства никогда не дадут покоя мировой западной элите. Для этого в ход идут все средства, приближение к границам военных баз, цветные революции и разжигание военных конфликтов в соседних странах. Украинцы пугают европейцев, что Россия хочет захватить чуть ли не всю Европу. Но просто включите логику. Зачем вы России, когда у нас итак все есть и огромные незаселенные территории? Россия просто создаст буферную зону для своей безопасности и вернет исконно русские территории с населением, которые были утеряны в результате хаоса развала СССР. Если Запад украдет российские активы, то мы конфискуем западные активы и будем на законных основаниях преследовать западные компании везде где у нас дотянутся руки. Единственный выход для глобального запада смириться с существованием России и ее интересами.
