I mean, the companies who continue to conduct business in Russia were given the same opportunity to make swift exit as all the others. If they incur losses as a result of retaliatory actions from Russia, seems the blame would fall squarely on their own shoulders. In the rare case where making an exit is not clear cut, perhaps some of the leftover $300 billion could be petitioned for use to subsidize these businesses’ losses, if they can demonstrate unavoidable and confounding barriers to exit.
