Renato CaputoHow much did PepsiCo contribute to Russia’s budget during four years of war?
According to estimates by KSE and B4Ukraine, if we look beyond corporate profit tax and include VAT, payroll taxes, social contributions, customs duties and other payments generated by PepsiCo’s operations in Russia, the figure for 2022–2025 could be around $1–2 billion.
To understand the scale: in 2024 alone, PepsiCo reportedly generated $4.5 billion in revenue in Russia and paid $122 million in profit tax. The company still operates 19 plants and employs around 60,000 people in the country.
Every ruble paid into Russia’s budget helps sustain a state waging a war of aggression against Ukraine.
Corporate responsibility cannot stop at press releases.

A Brejoin would be great:
Petition: Apply to Rejoin the EU as soon as possible to increase growth in the UK
We believe Brexit's not working. The OBR judges that the UK economy is smaller and trade is weaker because of Brexit, and it will just get worse. 10 years after the Brexit vote, let's apply to rejoin the EU, reverse the damage, boost growth, increase tax revenues and restore opportunities in the UK

we should all feel pretty ashamed of that as we strive to appreciate their now nigh futile sacrifices. that "nigh" is doing a ton of heavy lifting, and only exists in that sentence thanks to some modern brave souls who are working daily to turn the tide.

NextGraphDear @HennaVirkkunen we all hope you still plan to include Open Source as one of the pillars of the forthcoming Tech Sovereignty Package that will be discussed in 2 weeks from now at the next Commission meeting.
Alexandra GeeseThe European Commission kills an important driver of European sovereignty and competitiveness: the open source strategy. What a shame!
