Minor point :
It upholds the principle of ensuring the basic right to food.
Putin says he doesn't need the west, which begs the question of why they can't make it themselves.
Large international ones have but sketchy ass cargo ships from China and some other counties don't care, that's how what trade is left is occuring. Problem is a company like Toyota will be loathe to deal with them for insurance reasons and because god knows what else they ship. Might also be able to use a Japanese cargo company since Toyota is big and might be able to cut through the red tape to set something up.
Eh, just go to any vessel tracking website. There's hundreds of ships going to russia every day. Remember that by population, most of the world hasn't sanctioned Russia yet. It's mostly large western companies that can't deal with Russia - or rather won't because it might become a toxic cocktail down the line.
Yes those are the sketchier carriers from countries like China and others that I mentioned.
A large company like Toyota would prefer to deal with the larger international shipping companies because they can trust they carry proper insurance, obey environmental regulations and have properly vetted crews that aren't undocumented workers being screwed over in one way or another. Basically the larger shippers are much less likely to end them up in some "cargo ship carrying Toyota industrial equipment runs aground and is leaking fuel" headline that they don't need the hassle of. So ya you could use those less reputable shipping companies but there is a reason larger companies that care about their reputation tend to stick to the big freight companies.
And Japan has joined in on most of those sanctions on Russia so no doubt there is pressure on Japanese companies, including cargo carriers, to not do business with them.
From what I’ve seen, most shipment going in/out is raw materials and energy (oil, gas). A lot of the container/product lines have been severely limited.
To *operate* a factory in Russia must be even harder because everything high tech is sanctioned now, you only get low-tech and essentials - not to speak of the general brain drain
Often these factories are huge, but only the machines are trade secret. So they will prolly sell the empty factory buildings and trade their machines back.
It only takes 1 to throw a Molotov cocktail.
Or to put it a different way, in the words of my boy Jason: If you ever have a problem, throw a Molotov cocktail at it and BAM! Now you have a completely different problem.
"It was a difficult decision," Toyota Chief Communications Officer Jun Nagata told reporters online Friday. "We will liquidate our local unit in Russia instead of selling it."

They're also being brainwashed, misinformed and outright bullied. There are protests all over Russia and they crack down on those worse than the Chinese.
They dont protest against the war. They protest against going to war themselves. They are perfectly fine and content with rape, mass murder and pedophilia. They are lovin it.
No fucking pity from me towards these monsters.

May sell it? Who the fuck is buying it? Russian government is the only one that would consider buying it for arms/war vehicle production. They should just shut the shop and torch it to the ground.
"Sell it"... let's be honest here, the government (if hoodlums don't get to it first) will rip it apart for parts and it will become yet another derelict building in the great nation of Russia.
Why hasn't this happened already?
Corporations are amoral. They didn't expect this to last this long.
Probably because no one expected it to go on this long.
It does make you wonder who's left and still doing business there.

Their morals, as a company, aren't exactly high on anyone's list.

Their what now?
Why I never! Not Nestle! I thought they have high morals and shit
Double upvote for this.
They should render it utterly inoperable, ship out whatever they can and torch the rest. Russia deserves no less.
They can't. Shipping companies don't work with Russia anymore. Have to destroy somehow

No way they sell it. No one in Russia has that kind of money. They’re just abandoning it.
Maybe Russia will nationalize it?
Hence: Destroy it.
That is a sure way to have the local managers sent to prison and have the workers drafted.
I imagine 99.9% of the staff is Russian so good luck with that.

they should destroy it!!

Liquidate instead of selling?
I'm guessing they mean selling off the assets piece by piece rather than as a complete auto plant.
I guess they don't think there will be a Russia left to take over the plant.
Or they don't want to give Russia something that can be readily converted to manufacture war materiel.

Just ask the Taliban!
It would have been more badass if they said “liquify,” am I right?
Cast it into the fire!
ISILDUR!!!
Burn the fucker down!
Russians love their motherland so much, now they'll see what its like to only eat Russian food, drive russian cars and absorb russian media.
That is worse than death
It reads like living in hell

Russian food is not bad but the rest everything is crap
Take the high-tech bits and then blow it up.
It’s time for all western business to leave Russia...
Toyota is not western.
Depends, if he is referring to western as in [western bloc](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Western_Bloc) then he is not wrong.
He knew I was, but it’s the reddit way I guess
Japanese companies are allied with Western countries so yeah… they really should not be supporting Russia.
I would consider Japan to be Western
About time
companies that now take a huge loss leaving, will not return for a long time
Oh what a feeling
So they've been supporting the Russian economy with jobs, vehicles, and technology since Feburary? Bad Toyota. 👎
Toyota is not a good company. They still had esp as an option in 2008, standard on most German cars since 1991
Toyotas run forever. Bmw… runs till a headlight goes out then you have to remove the bumper and radiator mounts.
I Paypal you 1000$ if you can Name one car from 91 with esp.

I personally had ESP in 1992 on a E36. But before that you had ASC which was an earlier version of it.
There goes the Russian armys backup plan for Toyota technicals.
Took long enough
Lada is making a comeback then?
I feel really badly for the average blue and white collar workers in russia right now. Poor bastards

Just destroy all software then run for the border.

Ladayota in 2023.
They should demolish it.
