To the best of my knowledge, these aren't sanctions, just companies acting unilaterally to support Ukraine.
So many stories of it having an impact on those on our side, that just happen to have a Russian or Belarusian passport.
Even people that have already fled after previous crackdowns. They don't just get magical new passports.
- ushakov 5y agome too, i have my "bad" passport somewhere in the closet, but i don't live in Russia over half of my life and don't plan to return any time soon luckily, identity verification can be done with EU-residence permit and hopefully companies don't start discriminating Russians abroad
- sofixa 5y ago> To the best of my knowledge, these aren't sanctions, just companies acting unilaterally to support Ukraine Some of the sanctions ( like kicking out of SWIFT most Russian banks) make doing business in Russia extremely complicated, so even if there aren't direct sanctions forcing a pullout, they can indirectly have that effect.
- vertis 5y agoAgreed, but the SWIFT problems shouldn't impact EU business accounts (which is what I suspect this is, based of the twitter profiles location in Tallinn).
