This was reported by Rossiyskaya Gazeta with reference to a statement by Natalya Kostyukovich, Director of Public Relations at Volkswagen Group Rus.
“Given the overall high level of uncertainty and the impossibility of predicting a potential resumption of production in Nizhny Novgorod, Volkswagen Group Rus has taken the decision to begin the formal procedure for closing its own office in Nizhny Novgorod on July 5, 2022,” she said.
Kostyukovich clarified that in this case we are not talking about the production staff of GAZ, but only about Volkswagen Group Rus' own employees.
It is noted that when closing all the rights of employees will be respected.
Earlier, auto expert Pyotr Bakanov, in an interview with Nation News, commented on the situation on the used car market.
