Google may be the latest tech company to pull up stakes in Russia.
The online search giant is reportedly planning to shut down its Russian engineering operations, which employ roughly 50 engineers, according to The Information. The tech publication, which cites anonymous sources, adds that the Google engineers, most of whom are located in Moscow, will have the option of working with the company elsewhere.
A Google spokesman issued the following statement: “We are deeply committed to our Russian users and customers and we have a dedicated team in Russia working to support them.”
