Netflix Halts All Its Services In Russia Amid Russian-Ukraine Conflict
Netflix has become the latest corporation to cease all services in Russia in response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
in a statement by Netflix spokesperson, “Given the circumstances on the ground, we have decided to suspend our service in Russia.”
The news follows Netflix’s refusal to comply with a Russian rule requiring large streamers to play Russia’s propaganda channels, including NTV, which was announced last week.
According to the article, Netflix has halted all Russian acquisitions and productions, including Russian Netflix originals on which it had been working previously.
Netflix has 1 million Russian subscribers, according to estimates (PDF).
Netflix is far from the only corporation that has decided to leave Russia. Warner Bros. revealed last week that it was delaying the premiere of The Batman in Russian theaters.
In Russia, Disney has likewise put a halt to its theatrical releases.
Turning Red, the latest Pixar animated film, was set to premiere in the country on March 10.
TikTok has also declared that all uploads and livestreams from Russia will be paused.
