According to the wikipedia [1], the company was founded in Prague by 3 Russian developers. Now you can say that those ties are hard to break, but another way to look at it is that the founders have (likely) been living abroad for 2+ decades and building a global company there. They have publicly condemned Russia for attacking Ukraine and closed their Russian offices. They also suspended sales in Belarus.
