Not so sweet disgrace of Mondelēz International: A descendent of Cadbury UK’s founder James Cadbury has criticized the US parent company over its continued business in Russia.
As Russia completes its transition to a fully-fledged war economy, any company doing business in the country is indirectly financing its illegal invasion of Ukraine, including daily drone and missile strikes.
BUkraine demands an end to ongoing corporate complicity in Russian aggression and war crimes committed in Ukraine, which currently stands at over 130K.

B4Ukraine members have urged King Charles to strip companies, which are still operating in Russia, of their royal warrant status. We call on the Royal Palace to lead the way against war profiteering and corporate complicity in Russia’s war crimes. https://lnkd.in/eBgUdvJz

Unilever is a British consumer goods firm that defends its right to sell ice cream in Russia under the guise of providing essential goods to the local population. Claiming to show deep concern for its Russia-based employees, Unilever has confirmed in a letter to B4Ukraine that it would let its 3,000 staff to be conscripted. In 2022, Unilever paid $50 mln of profit tax to the Kremlin, enough to buy a Su-34 fighter bomber.

The Cadbury family back in the 19th century built a true “workers paradise”; a village near Birmingham; Bourneville, for their workers.
Some of their descendants got greedy and sold out to crooks with this rotten result.
I would expect a quick response from King Charles. Back in 2014, he was the first public figure to draw a parallel with Sudetenland and Crimea.
I’ll never understand the type of disgusting greed that exists in some two-legged creatures and why our governments are tolerating this kind of crap.
