Russians have allot to loose economically in this, if they will be the one to loose they won’t take that kinda action abi u tink say MC Donald be like una MR Biggs wey no sabi how to manage their bizness?

MangekyoAlt:

Did I say I didn't know the answer before asking the question?
My question meant.
What is MacDonald doing in Russia?
That shutting down will be a blow to Russia?
Apparently it would be them that is shooting themselves in the foot since they are the one shutting their services in a country. Others alternatives will push in their products instead which will without any doubt be accepted by russians since MacDonald is no longer available

USA shot itself on the foot.

Beer parlour economic analysis.

This type of sanction no follow abeg, there is nothing like beer parlour analysis here, you owned a business and decided to shut it down when there are many competitors out there willing to take over front you, who is losing...

I hope next time Africans are being killed unjustly, the whole fvcking world financial system will come to their rescue like this instead of turning a blind eye

After this war many countries eyes go open. Time to invest indegeniously. No need to depend on d west again

That America dollars will be so bleeped. Then many countries go dey self dependance like North Korea

Finally, Seun don get competitor

FDI running low day by day and some local economists are saying gibberish.. look at how our agricultural sector just grown after years of abandonment for oil..

Why

Emmajn1:
US is not wise. Trump cannot make such silly economic mistakes. All these useless attitude of US owned company is simply what it means to shoot yourself in the foot. They are not looking at the big picture. Negotiation and persuading Ukraine to stand down and recognise those new cities as independent countries, should have been the best way to go.

u need to understand this, there is a growing campaign both off and online for the west especially US to boycott cooperations that are not standing against Russia, so if u are in thier shoes what will u do? Would you rather loose ur western markets or pull out of Russia? And just so u know they will keep paying thier employees for now. Coca-Cola is pulling out also

Where will they see the much needed capital funding to embark on such businesses when their ruble is now worth less than a penny and their stock market has more or less ceased to exist?

Hunger in the land is loading from all fronts.

If you know any Nigerian in Russia try and reach out to them so they can read the scores to you in real time

Many of them Putin guys here didn’t understand what the US meant when they said their citizens in Russia should return home. Enough suffering is loading

I honestly don't understand the rationale behind this thinking...I might not be the biggest fan of the west but I don't understand how you guys don't realize there are always consequences to certain actions...

You wake up one day and seize a country's territory, because your angry its citizens brought a government sympathetic to you down, as if that was not enough you supported a region of the country to pick up arms against it...

You decided to accept them as a country being the only nation to do that just to spite the country you claim to be fighting...

You declare war on the country and start bombarding it left right centre leading to the worst humanitarian crises in Europe since world war 2 and for some reason expect there would not be consequences wether you are right or not...

I really do not understand the rational behind this thinking, I get you Love Russia and all but be objective for Christ sake...

What is Macdonalds doing in Russia?
To make more money through selling their useless products or to entertain russians?
If a food seller closes his shop, no be himself him dey do? You wey dey buy food from an before you go find other alternatives.
Macdonalds should be chased out self.
The Chinese will replace them with the speed of light
But russia doesn't really realize how lucky they are right now to have China. China is the only major power that hasn't criticized them openly. They still trade with them and are even looking to trade more.
If USA had meted these sanctions on Russia 15 years ago, Russia wouldve crumbled already. But by God's grace, they won't, with the help of China. USA and Britain claimed they will crumble Russian economy. Na them go shame last last.

I stand with Putin!

Guy you’re still doing beer parlor analysis. This isn’t a movie. Go read about how the US sanctions contributed to the collapse of the Soviet Union, not even China could help them. And this is also beyond China now because their biggest trading partner is the US and their trade relations surpasses that of the whole Europe. This thing go really hard for Russia.

Tiiitoo:

Lol...what about the SUPPLY CHAIN that has been made redundant by the temporary closure? 850 restaurants is a lot.

How is supply chain made redundant by the temporary closure of 850 restaurants?

Bros leave economic analysis for those who know it. Even with your eyes wide open u won’t see the damages all this boycott and sanctions will do to Russia

Pls explain how the Ukraine situation is now the worst humanitarian crisis in Europe since WW2. Also, all d sins u outlined of Russia, which one is US/UK and NATO not guilty of or have done worse?

Comradewhy:

And how about the people that are used to MacDonald?
They are gonna switch overnight?

Or you expect 850 alternative restaurant that can beat MacDonald to come up In a day?

McDonald's has over 750 restaurants in Russia.
The company's total investments in Russia exceed $2.5 billion, while average annual growth of investments is around 14%.
And you think it won't be a blow to Russia.

Only the unemployment wey go follow Mac Donald exit sef ehn. Not to talk of the destabilization of the fission between the Russian economy and McDonalds yearly out put. MangekyoAlt just leave economics for people wey sabi am. This one no be about bombs wey u dey use market woman analysis dey comment about

Why

How did our agricultural sector "just grown after years of abandonment for oil"?

Exactly... the fast food business will rise and be innovative in russia... opportunities for russians to start fast food or restaurant business... food is something we all need and vacuum will be filled... yes, there there will be temporary loss of jobs but ultimately they will come back and it also gives the young russians that were working in mcdonalds the oppurtuinity to go into different areas to study and make russia great always...no pain no gain.

tatutatu:
who cares about Mac Donald.

U see una life?! Na just to shout Putin this Putin that. Oga those who will become unemployed if McDonalds go na dem care. About 850 outlets are closing and all those who work there will be jobless in their thousands, plus the other business ventures that gain from Mac Donald's presence. For example a company that produces shoes will always do business with another company that produces the raw hide materials, and that’s a perfect example of what I mean. The Russian economy also cares because they will also lose the returns they gain from a big franchise like McDonalds. It’s a chain reaction that will destabilize the economy too.

I always said it that Putin supporters no sabi anything. Na copy and paste them dey do with each other comments

Golan007:


At least 8,500 Russians just lost their jobs.

You’re intelligent. Leave those Putin goons wey no dey use their head

WHY TEMPORARILY?


RUSSIA SHOULD TAKE ADVANTAGE TO MAKE IT PERMANENT, WHILST THEY TAKE IT OVER AND KEEP THE BRAND NAME.



EVERYTHING IS ON GROUND, JUST REPLACE THE MANAGEMENT WITH RUSSIANS AND SEND THE AMERICANS HOME.



ANYBODY CAN MAKE BURGERS.


NONSENSE!

Anybody can’t make burgers. If not McDonalds would have had a strong indigenous competition by now. It doesn’t work that way. As u take talk am with mouth no be so e dey for real life. U gerrit?

this a loss to all the parties involved, i.e Russian Government, Russians (those working for Mc), and even a greater loss to McDonald's .

So McDonalds think they'd be allowed to reopen again after everything is settle? Hell No.

I don't think Putin will let them come back just like that. Not Putin, even YOU yourself won't let them.

Goodluck Mr.Biggs , Dominos, BurgerKing, Subway and other competitors

Rainbow219:
Hmm so sorry mcdonal you will miss plenty of monies from these 850 restaurants may be its your end in the world of bussiness

And more than 8,500 Russian people who will lose their jobs will miss their salary money. Make una dey think small

tatutatu:
they'll be compensated by the Russian government. This is not Nigeria where her citizens get 50,000.

Compensated in what way?? By a dwindling economy?? Guy go pour water for head first make we check something

Russia too will know "Jesus is Lord". These sanctions are heavy

This is an economic opportunity for many of the Putin boys on Nairaland to go and set up shop, selling food in Russia

Alagidi Putin stop this nonsense war.
Him no dey hear word bcus him get coconut head.

pansophist:


You only have to go to China to know that its the number one economy and the true superpower. If you think the west is develop, then you haven't been to South East Asia, especially China and Japan. China is just miles ahead of US and if China sanctions you, you're finished. The west knows about it hence they want to bring the country down. It won't happen.

China sanction America?? All these beer parlor analyst keep spewing trash.
