Over 1,000 Companies Have Curtailed Operations in Russia--But Some Remain

Reuters says [link:https://www.reuters.com/markets/europe/top-brands-pull-out-russia-their-goods-remain-easy-find-2023-02-22/|

MOSCOW, Feb 22 (Reuters) - Trucks carrying Coca Cola roll across the border into Russia, tourists return from abroad laden with Zara's latest designs, and local online marketplaces snap up IKEA's furniture stocks. Western brands may have left the country, but their goods haven't.
Despite European, North American and Japanese companies exiting Russia over its actions in Ukraine, the impact on Russian consumers is minimal, although delivery times can be longer and some goods more expensive.


So now Yale has done extensive research to find out who is still doing business with Russia.
The latest update done this month is pretty interesting.

This article from the NYT was written by the Yale researchers LAST spring.
