The company that oversees the Domino’s Pizza brand in Russia said it will file for bankruptcy there, signaling a definitive end to its operations in that country nearly 18 months after President Vladimir Putin launched an unprovoked invasion of neighboring Ukraine.

DP Eurasia, the franchisee for Domino’s in Europe and Asia, cited unspecified business challenges in Russia, where it operated more than 100 restaurants. The U.S.-based Dominos Pizza has said it cut off financial support for the Russian business in December 2022.

A bankruptcy filing is now forthcoming, the company said.

    Exactly. Now stand firm against the “we can’t have that here [because made up x y and z reasons]” clowns that will tell you it isn’t possible in any other country.

    We know it’s possible. Especially for the richest nation in the world. The issue is that the richest nation in the world has been bought by the powerful elite and doesn’t give a single fuck about the people, because capitalism is busy making shareholders rich.

    They still exchange currency for goods and services in Norway. Hell they even pump oil offshore. The difference is that that oil profit literally goes to the benefit of the people.
