- graemep 1y agoWhere in Europe? Belarus is in Europe, and so is much of Russia (the largest European country). Plenty of variation in the rest of Europe. What do you mean by cut all ties? The owners and management have no assets in Belarus or ties to the country?
- ramanh 1y agoyou can open "contact us" page on their website.
- graemep 1y agoNot sure how that helps answer my question. A list of contact addresses is not a list of all locations, or all employees or all a contractors or all shareholders or all financial interests. The one thing the site tells me is that it is operated by two separate companies - Flo Inc and Flo health UK. The directors of Flo Health Limited live in the UK and Cypress, two are Belarusian nationals and one Russian.

- dang 1y agoPlease don't post nationalistic flamebait to HN. It leads to nationalistic flamewars, which are a bad thing on this site. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
- pllbnk 1y agoThat's fair, I apologize. I just meant to point out that these people are the prisoners of their regimes regardless of where they live, hence the inability to trust their actions not because of their personal prejudices but their inherent ties to their origins. However I understand it was worded in such a way which might have looked like attack on their nationalities or personalities, which it wasn't.
- dang 1y agoEven invoking a concept like "inherent ties to origin" is inflammatory and likely to have a flamebait effect. HN is a highly international community and we need to respect each other as individuals, each with our own distinct background. Otherwise it quickly turns into a battlefield, which does no good.
