Dear Bart, my fellow Ukrainians are dying now in the war against Russia … And you are advising how to work around the situation with Russian sanctions and cargo flows sitting safely in your office? Are you completely out of your mind, boy? All cooperation with Russia MUST BE STOPPED NOW !!!

How is Bart advising on how to work around these sanctions? When he clearly says that his job is to ensure that companies do everything by the rules.
“compliant with all rules and laws…certainly not going to help companies to circumvent the sanctions.”….Am I missing something?
