As of January 1, the Chinese company Huawei is closing its Enterprise Business Group division in Russia, which is responsible for providing solutions in the field of information and communication technologies for corporate customers.
As reported by Ukrinform, this was reported by Kommersant.
About two thousand people worked in it.
According to the interlocutors, some employees received offers for transfer to the CIS countries, others will be fired.
At the same time, he states that Huawei maintains research and development centers in the Russian Federation.
Because the equipment can be used in the public sector, Huawei’s decision is associated with secondary enforcement risks.
According to the interlocutor, products imported through “parallel import” may have limitations in the operation of software for the region, so Huawei’s presence in the information and communication technologies market will “gradually decrease.”
In November, it was learned that Huawei divided Enterprise into CIS countries and Russian Federation.
As reported by Ukrinform, in the summer, the Chinese smartphone manufacturer Huawei began to close its branded stores in the Russian Federation against the background of sanctions against Russia for its invasion of Ukraine.
