McDonald's temporarily closes its doors in Russia

The fast food chain McDonalds, announced last week an indefinite stoppage of activities in Russia, in retaliation for the attacks against the Ukraine which started at the end of February.

The stoppage took effect this Monday (14th) and Sunday, the last day of establishments with open doors, was marked by long queues of people and cars in about 850 units spread across the country.

Many people went to fast food outlets to secure their burgers before the closures and there were some who even stocked up.

At a branch in St. Petersburg, customers caught employees singing as they arrived at the end of the day. All network employees in Russia will continue to receive full wages and benefits until the shutdown ends.

Another curious fact that happened in one of the Moscow branches was the pianist Luka Safronov, who handcuffed himself to the cafeteria door in protest. He had to be removed by police and classified the action as hostility, and that the restaurant's hamburgers

“are becoming a symbol of the violation of freedoms”.

A man in Russia today, pianist Nikas Safronov, chains himself to a McDonald’s and screams, “They don’t have the right to close down!” before he's carted off by the police. Someone in the crowd yells back, “In six weeks, they’ll reopen under another name!” pic.twitter.com/FhAwronpiS
