Russian MP asks govt to ban US sodas as counter-sanction measure
 

The head of Russia?s Party of Pensioners is urging sanctions against the Coca-Cola and PepsiCo claiming the soda giants are major sponsors of anti-Russian politicians in US and that the move would boost domestic producers of soft drinks.

?In support of the president?s and government?s actions regarding the countersanctions we suggest restricting imports of products made by the Coca-Cola and PepsiCo companies that are the main sponsors of respectively the Republican and Democratic parties of the United States, the active supporters of prolonged sanctions against the Russian Federation,? Igor Zotov wrote in a letter to the Russian prime minister, quoted by the Izvestia daily.

they should ban all 'american' produce, not just liquid caramelized sugar. smokes, fast food franchises, american cars and most importantly iphones and internet along with USD's!

Thus creating a consumer vacuum in the beverage dept - that Canadians will capitalize as an opportunity to increase beer exports to that sadly backward nation.
