Starbucks is leaving Russia after 15 years in business. The coffee chain had temporarily shut down its stores in March over Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
This is the second major exit of a global American brand from Russia, after McDonald's last week began "de-arching" its entire chain after 32 years.
