This is all an overreaction to Putin breaking the “no shirt, no shoes, no service” rules.

"McDonald's banned in Russia but good enough for us?" It makes sense that you use Russia as a standard for Americans.

Their ‘hamburgers’ are an insult to hamburger.

More likely is that McDonald’s wouldn’t pay Chicago style payola to them. This is an inspection violation, after all. And it just happens to affect all the stores of the entire franchise in one fell swoop. Sure.

Do they even have beef in Russia?

Reminds me of this:
“Why is McDonald’s having difficulty opening restaurants in Baku?”
~ Barack Obama, U.S. Senator from Illinois, 2005
That’s a very import question to ask when meeting with the President of Azerbaijan about nuclear disarmament. We definitely need more McDonald’s and fewer nuclear weapons on the loose. /s

Are their any Russian based chain eateries? Borscht King? Red Cabbage?
Never have heard of any Russkie Huts or other franchises there.

Shutting down 4 of 430 restaurants hardly looks like a move by Pupin’. It may be a symbolic move, or there may be some code violations. Who knows?

Interesting. I would have figured they’d all freeze to death.

I know you want to do whatever Putin tells you to do. But if you don’t want to eat there, don’t. The US allows that.
