Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov does not believe that it is necessary to immediately meet the needs of foreign companies that left Russia and then decided to return. Lavrov added that the vacant niche should be occupied by Russian business.
Dmitry Medvedev, deputy chairman of the Russian Security Council, noted that it would be more difficult for some foreign companies to return than to leave. According to Russian President Vladimir Putin, companies leaving the country sell assets for a pittance to their management, with whom they have an agreement on an imminent return.
