It is obvious that the situation leaves a certain imprint on the activities of companies, including Yandex.
Over the past few years, the company has launched a lot of services, and, of course, this cannot but affect profitability, some economic component,” the expert explained.
He noted that today VKontakte is becoming the main platform in Russia.
“Let me remind you that Yandex operates and is registered abroad, which imposes certain problems in the current period of time.
