LG halts all shipments to Russia
LG is joining other tech heavyweights in halting Russian sales following that country's invasion of Ukraine. The company said in ait was"suspending" all product shipments to Russia. The firm didn't say how long this would last, but noted it would keep a"close watch" on the situation. LG is"deeply concerned" about everyone's welfare and"committed" to humanitarian relief, according to the notice.
It's not clear just what prompted the timing of the decision, which comes weeks after the late February invasion. There's a lot of pressure to act, however.
