Summary

Moscow warns that Western companies that left Russia after its invasion of Ukraine will face consequences if they return.

Russian industry minister Anton Alikhanov stated, “There will be a price to pay for past decisions,” emphasizing a focus on domestic and Eurasian partners.

Nearly 475 firms, including McDonald’s and Ikea, exited following sanctions, though some may consider returning post-war.

Experts note that political, reputational, and economic challenges—amid ongoing inflation, tight monetary policy, and Putin’s authoritarian control—will likely deter a rapid re-entry by Western companies.

    There will be a price to pay for past decisions

    Yeah, that price is that no sane economy will invest in Russia as long as they are scum. They have proven that they don’t care about contracts, sovereignty, territorial borders and human dignity.
