“In no way is there any talk of nationalization,” RIA Novosti quotes Matvienko’s comment on the draft law on external management in relation to enterprises of foreign companies that stop working in Russia.
She also stated that she opposes the destruction of the institution of property, the market, as this can lead to the destruction of the world economy.
Earlier, First Deputy Prime Minister of Russia Andrey Belousov said that the vast majority of foreign companies expressed a desire to stay on the Russian market.
At the same time, he noted that Russia must firmly defend its interests in the event of the departure of foreign companies.
