Unilever to suspend its Russia imports, exports

- Unilever on Tuesday became the first major European food company to stop imports and exports out of Russia in the wake of the country's attack on Ukraine.

The maker of Dove soap and Knorr soup said it would not invest any further in Russia and would also stop all media and advertising spend there, adding that its Ukrainian operations have stopped.

Unilever also said it would continue to supply its everyday essential food and hygiene products made in Russia to people in the country, but would not take any profit from its Russian presence.
