He noted that there are few opportunities for this due to the growing hysteria.

Earlier in Sweden, kefir was removed from stores due to associations of its packaging with Russia.

Because of the surge of Russophobia in the West, restaurants of Russian cuisine are suffering - even if only the name connects them with Russia. In the United States, establishments are trying to distance themselves from the Russian Federation - for example, they designate their dishes not as Russian, but as Eastern European. At the same time, employees of many restaurants who receive threats by phone are actually Ukrainians.
