Putin is Nationalizing investments as well. Way to go.

A blind woman once said the worst thing that can happen to anyone is not being without eyes. Rather having eyes but no VISION

No, be lie boss.

Eriokanmi:
This your narrative doesn't apply in business. Russia can't remain the same again, in the next decade. When twitter was banned by buhari and that aboki apc apologist was busy marketing his local replica, how far did he go? Can the local replica of Mcdonalds in Russia
guarantee better working conditions as McDonald's did? What of the revenues and capital base? What of brand loyalty?

Your narrative is a replica of a local champ

hush15:


I get the point but the things this Uncle Vanya can only happen in Russia. they can't extend outside Russia ultimately. They will be sued for patent rights and Russia will lose. Investors wont be able to expand and thereby losing potential revenues. Eventually will drop the business and they back to square one. Mind you, McDonalds still owns the property o

texazzpete:
The ignorance in this thread sha.

Russia represents just 3% of McDonalds profits. So this isn’t a significant blow to their bottom line.

Additionally, Russia hasn’t gone ahead to nationalize their assets. That’s just fake news. A Russian has applied for a new logo with that trademark, but the existing restaurants won’t open with that.

If Russia goes ahead to nationalize the assets, it’s likely that compensation will be given to McDonalds out of Russia’s frozen reserves.

So nothing spoil

texazzpete:


I’m so sorry you cannot read. Because I directly mentioned the frozen assets and reserves in my last paragraph.

Have you tried a good night school? It’s never too late!

HarunaWest:

What PUTIN did is retaliation to the Larceny of the west. They taking over Russian businesses and properties in their domain and he is only returning the favour. I am in no support of the war, sanctions et al., buh trying to cow everyone into submission doesn't make sense. Instead of the west to broker peace and call Putin to order, they are busy providing Ukraine with weapons. Is this peace keeping?

NwaAmaikpe:





Exactly what happened to my stupid aunty.

She packed from her marital home in anger because she suspected her husband was cheating with his secretary at work.

Two months later, her househelp was pregnant with twin boys for him.

Let me also add that neither my stupid aunty nor any of her female kids got anything from him in his will.

Moral of the story is, don't always strive to be politically correct, there are a millions who would do better queueing up to take the spot you give away.

AroleOduduwa2:


Russia is no stranger to sanctions and have you seen the protest in Europe due to high cost of livelihood. EU will suffer the most because most of the EU countries are too reliant on Russia

Even the mighty US is now buying oil from Russia and do I need to tell you Israel is supporting Russia.

HarunaWest:
The economics terminology is NATIONALISATION no matter how we go about it.

dettolgel:


It's amazing how people could confidently display their ignorance and naivety in public.

You and the guy you quote.. Are f%ls.. Apple inc is an American company which assembling and manufacturing plants are mostly in Asia..
Just because China has the man power and cheap labour.. Doesn't make it a Chinese company..
Besides they are patent regulations and trademarks..
Just because you live in Nigeria doesn't make you stup!d

KazikageSama:


Indeed, so why was Putin wailing that sanctions to Russia are now acts or war? Why is the South African Rand now more valuable than Russian ruble?

Why are Russians protesting severe hardship worse than the days of USSR? Why are Int'l students decrying the hardships they're going through in Russia now.

All the pseudo strength and self sufficient claims by Russia are just "for the gram", a show of resilience to cover up the Russian Gov't failures.

NairaMaster1:


If you know what economists call foreign investment, balance of trade you won't be saying this. Just that you are either a mere graduate, an npower boy or an undergraduate. Anyway you are Nigerian. All the oppression in your country is not a problem but Russia and Ukraine because of your hatred for the west that you always hope to relocate to.
Ask an economist to tell you what Russia is facing right now.

Nellsworld:

U may be wrong, sometimes u don't listen to economists cos they can lead you to failure, examples are IMF to Nigeria, to Greece, which ended up in a mess, the international companies left, should dey keep the offices empty, do u know hw many jobs will be lost, they have to think wetin and use their initiative and keep the business going, it may not be like the Macdonald or any, but at least the economy is still going, it may be hard now but in the future, that company would ve gotten a lot of ground in Russia that their citizens wouldn't reason Macdonald again, don't just sit down and reason wat those folk that just love talking theory without practical solutions, the Russian govt is trying every possible means to keep those companies that left going becos majority of those companies employees are Russians, change the brand, just do wat u were doing, Macdonald audience were the Russian population, so nothing have change, the same audiences but different brand name and a cheaper price

Jesus, mc Donald don’t own any property, they own only the logo and recipe,
The property belongs to individuals who only paid for Mac Donald franchise

Google MacDonald they are Worth more than some Banks in Nigeria

Ekoblendedsince:
For those hailing Russia for invading Ukraine,how will you feel if the same is done to you?

obiekunie01:
putin should make sure he create laws to forbid these WESTERN companies from returning to russia!

HE SHOULD COPY FROM HIS FRIEND CHIZIPIN ABI NA WETIN BE THAT HIS NAME? AM TALKING OF CHINESE PRESIDENT THAT BAN ALL THE WESTERN SOCIAL MEDIAS LIKE FB, TWITTER, ETC, AND SOME WESTERN COMPANIES LIKE MACDONALD FROM OPERATING IN CHINA.

he should also as a matter of urgency encourage his tech citizens to develop their own social app like the Chinese did and ban facebook, twitter, insta, whatassp from ever operating withing the borders of Russia!

teach them a lesson they will never forget like the Chinese did.

while he is on it, he should beg his friend chizipin to borrow him the apple template with them so his Russian tech guys can develop their own Russian version of apple products and name them fruits.

LETS SEE WHO WILL LOSE LAST LAST!

bn365:


I didn't have the patience to read your last paragraph, and that's my bad
Well, I'm glad you went to a day school and are well-read.
I bet it helps you sleep well at night.
You're smart because you were given a certificate from an elite school, I guess? Nah.

I see a whole lot of you guys support the West in the hope you'll relocate someday, but some people can see the forest from the trees because they live in the West
