Koch Industries will not be suspending its business activities in Russia amid public outcries for businesses to boycott the country amid the ongoing war in Ukraine. The decision is backed up by multiple Koch-funded think tanks and organizations that just make their practices even dirtier. Cenk Uygur, Jayar Jackson, and Amy Vilela discuss on The Young Turks.

"Koch Industries says it will not pull its business out of Russia, defying the trend set by other corporations of suspending their in-country operations to protest the invasion of Ukraine.

According to the Washington Post, the company, one of the largest privately-owned businesses in the US, employs 122,000 people around the world, with just over 600 working at a subsidiary, Guardian Industries, inside Russia.

The company said it would continue its operations in Russia because to do otherwise would put its "employees there at greater risk and do more harm than good."

Since the beginning of the war in Ukraine, more than 400 companies have pulled their operations out of Russia. Some firms pulled out shortly after the war began, while others - like McDonald's and Coca-Cola - did so after public pressure intensified.

However, Koch Industries has bucked that trend, as have around 30 other companies, according to a list compiled by Yale management professor Jeffrey Sonnenfeld and his research team."
