‘However, we have a commitment to our global community and must remain steadfast in our values,’ Mr Kempczinski said in a statement, ‘and our commitment to our values means that we can no longer keep the arches shining there.’

As it tries to sell its restaurants, McDonald’s said it plans to start removing golden arches and other symbols and signs with the company’s name.

It said it will keep its trademarks in Russia.

Putin has ruined Russia. Young people have been leaving in droves. The “Russian” label will last for decades.

McDonalds and "values"???? Some sort of an oxymoron contest or what exactly??

It's rare that you ever find a McDonalds anywhere on Earth without there being some decent buffet or restaurant within a mile or two that is no more expensive and serves decent food...

Russian counter-sanctions meant that McDonald’s already lost its trademark. Also, how, exactly does McDonald’s plan to ‘remove’ its golden arches in that country?
