You’re never going to be able to buy a majority. And state ownership is still state ownership.
That’s true for certain industries that are state-owned in Russia.
All other parts of the Russian market, there are no limits on foreign ownership.
Its far from ideal but its a lot better than during the Soviet days when the state owned everything in the country.
Then you’ll really love when they start only accepting payment in a gold backed trade currency, rather than in Euros or Dollar funny money which can have it’s value stolen away through inflation.
There’s nothing wrong about looking after your own national interests first. And there is nothing automatically holy about the engine of your economy being owned by foreigners hostile to your national interests either.
“You’re never going to be able to buy a majority. And state ownership is still state ownership.”
Airbus is basically a state funded company, competing with Boeing. I guess it’s ok when the EU subsidizes entire industries. And this also brings to mind “too big to fail”.
And i seem to recall something about GM, Tesla, Solyndra, etc.
It’s very thin ice to be upset about state ownership of an industry.
