“Our clients Phillip Morris International and a number of other well-known international brands have announced the suspension of investment plans and a decrease in business activity in russia. We hope that the next step is the complete cessation of any economic activity in the aggressor country, which does not recognize the norms of international law and considers it appropriate to use weapons even against civilians,” said Sergiy Tsivkach, UkraineInvest Executive Director.
📌 The UkraineInvest team is currently working with companies that have decided to completely withdraw from russia, offering them production sites and the necessary support for relocation in Ukraine.
