The list of tech giants that decided to take a stance on the Russian invasion of Ukraine now includes Intel. The company is suspending shipments to customers in Russia.
Intel has raised over a million dollars for relief efforts.
The statement was released by Intel on March 3. Intel says that it condemns the invasion of Ukraine by Russia and will suspend all shipments to that country. The statement makes it clear that Intel is hoping to support not just Ukraine, but also its employees, who have close ties to the region.
The Intel Foundation is in charge of the employee donation and matching campaign. In order to aid the hundreds of thousands of refugees who are currently fleeing Ukraine, the foundation is said to be working with its teams in Europe.
We will continue to stand with the people of Ukraine and the global community in calling for an immediate end to this war and a swift return to peace.
A growing list of brands and companies are quickly cutting ties with Russia and other countries. According to the latest news, Belarus has sent its military to aid the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
Various sanctions imposed on Russia by the United States government, such as the U.S. Department of Commerce requirement that limits the export of microelectronics, telecommunications items, and various items that are utilized in wartime, have led to Intel's decision. There is a long list of financial sanctions made on Russian institutions and individuals, as well as banning Russian aircraft from the U.S. airspace. Many countries are doing the same thing.
The war has been condemned the same way as Intel has, and that's whyAMD has decided to stop shipping to Russia. Microsoft stated that it is suspending new sales of its products and services to Russia. It seems that Microsoft will keep shipping to Belarus.
Apple, Sony, and Dell are some of the companies that have stopped shipments to Russia. Apple will match employee donations made to Ukrainian relief efforts two to one. The Russian state media channels were blocked from all of the platforms. The ban on Russian apps and the use of Google Pay for users of banks that have been hit by the U.S. sanctions are included in this.
Adding to the pressure on the Russian government is the growing list of companies that refuse to be associated with Russia.
