The American fast-food chain has announced that it will temporarily close its 850 restaurants
in the country and suspend all its operations on Russian soil, thus following in the footsteps of many
multinationals that have decided to distance themselves from Moscow. The group will continue to pay its
62,000 employees in the country, said in a message the general manager of the company, Chris Kempczinski.

Reason: news
Good. Shut anything not Russian down. Let the people complain about Putin. No more Starbucks or donuts etc. Why do we give so much power to one idiot?? When an idiot rises up and can’t play well with others, they need to be made to step down. He is a murderer.

They have Putin, we have Brandon. Please don't shut down my local Taco Bell!

Pay them ANYWAY?? WHY?? You should take what you're going to pay them and, instead, give that money to Ukrainians who have lost everything! PLUS, tell the McDonald's WHY they're no longer working!

Paying them is a dumb move. Lets get 62k more Russians revolting please.

I guess it's because McDonald's plans to reopen in the near future. The money is frozen now anyway. I reckon they can only use it for local transactions in rubles, like paying the employees. They'll lose a lot of value if exchanged to USD. And cannot wire it overseas like to Ukraine, since swift is gone.
ABC Evening News just showed a clip from 32 years ago with Diane Sawyer reporting the grand opening of the first McDonald’s in Russia and closed by asking how long will it last.
