Imagine "Yandex stops operating in Russia" as tomorrow's headline. Keep being Dutch, compete with Google.

would that be even possible? I thought pretty much anyone working for them is physically located in Russia. Who would want to (or be allowed to) continue working for them if they suddenly were 100% a remote workforce based in RU?

A friend who works for Yandex was relocated to Netherlands a few years back.

That is unlikely because Yandex has a "Public Interest Fund" (which consists mostly of government-appointed people) that has significant power, including a right to temporarily replace the general director [1].

Seems unreasonable is the market where they make all the money. Would be equivalent to declare bankruptcy

Buy when it's low, sell high.

Chinese or Indian banks?
