“Over the past few weeks, we have significantly curtailed our business operations in Russia in response to the tragedy for the population of Ukraine… Given the enormous human suffering being caused by escalating military action in Ukraine and to protect our employees worldwide from potential public aggression, we have decided to close our own stores and e-commerce websites in Russia,” the press release stated.
