Apple is described as an American corporation that removed multiple Russian-linked applications, including those from VK Group and Yandex Pay, from its App Store without prior notice. The company cited sanctions compliance as the reason for the removals, though Russian authorities and media characterized the actions as politically motivated and part of a broader digital conflict.
