WASHINGTON, Feb 27 (Reuters) - U.S.-based United Parcel Service Inc (UPS.N) and FedEx Corp (FDX.N), two of the world's largest logistics companies, have said they are halting delivery service to Russia and Ukraine in light of the Russian invasion of its neighbor.

Is Amazon still delivering massive rubber dildos to the Kremlin?

Guess I’ll have to ship my Stinger there via DHL. /s

[dynachrome]

So, my vodka and Svetlana blowup doll will be delayed?

[Rennes Templar]

Great. Punish the hard-working people, would-be middle classers waiting for business supplies.

[Pox]

This will irritate many Russians who want their package on time! Wonder if they'll give Pooty a piece of their mind? It'll cost them their freedom, but that seems to be a trend in Russia over the last week.

[proust]

Russian laws already made it very difficult for them to ship there anyway. Only a big dumb corp can turn that into a virtue signalling postion.

Looks like he'll have to fly home.

[rellic]

Makes sense since most the airspace is closed and the Russians have a history of shooting down defenseless civilian aircraft by “accident”

[Ouderkirk]

This is not for some “support” or whatever BS they are pushing.

The bottom line is that their insurance carriers will not insure ANYTHING in a war zone, product or LIVES.

[DIRTYSECRET]

Amazing. No waiting for a government mandate.

My company sells to and supports customers internationally and we were told 4 days ago that we were to have no contact with any customers in Ukraine.

Planning to visit Russia soon?

What about Russia?

“Great. Punish the hard-working people, would-be middle classers waiting for business supplies.”

You forget you are talking to a bunch of humanitarians here. They say things like the Russian people don’t support putin in one sentence and then go on to say let’s starve them to death. You can’t make this shit up

[TheDon]

Flying into a war zone is probably not a good idea.

[MercyFlush]

“Planning to visit Russia soon?”

Why? Did you want me to bring you some rubber dildoes?

[TheDon]

Russians are big customers for your company?

[jetson]

THAT’S IT! Drop rubber dildos on the Russian soldiers. They will gaze upon them for hours.

More good news.
