France Calls on Russia to Reverse Move Placing French, European Firms Under Temporary Administration
Paris denounces the decision affecting companies including Auchan, FM Logistic and Nestle as "unjustified"
France has urged Russia to reverse a decision to place the local subsidiaries of several French and other European companies under temporary administration, according to Anadolu Agency.
The French government condemned the move as "unjustified," Anadolu Agency reported, without providing further detail on the specific legal or economic justification cited by Russian authorities for the measure.
Among the companies affected are French retailer Auchan, logistics firm FM Logistic, and Swiss food giant Nestle, according to the report.
Anadolu Agency did not specify when the temporary administration measures took effect or which Russian authority ordered them. It was also not immediately clear how the affected companies planned to respond or what the practical implications of the administrative change would be for their operations in Russia.
The French government's statement, as reported by Anadolu Agency, framed the move as part of Paris's broader criticism of Russian actions affecting European businesses operating in the country.
Further details on the scope of the measure, including whether other companies or nationalities were involved, were not available in the report.
