Since Google failed to take down an account on YouTube that exposed Russia's ferocity over the Ukraine war last month, Moscow has continued to put pressure on the company.
Pressure after pressure has made Alphabet Inc's subsidiary company Google Russia fail bankrap after the Russian authorities took action to seize the company's bank account.
This action has indirectly paralyzed the operation of the company in terms of paying workers' salaries and renting shops in Russia.
The matter has been confirmed by a Google spokesperson, but YouTube's service is said to continue operating in the country.
According to a Google spokesperson, following the company's failure to meet financial obligations, they made the decision to fail the bankrupt.
Even so, it is still unknown whether the confiscation of funds was the cause of the bankrap's insolvency or the reason for the confiscation of other funds.
This is because a Russian commercial TV channel once reported that the kingdom took 1 billion rubles from Google for its failure to restore access to their YouTube account.
In addition, the Russian Alliance Bailif Service Database also once listed 2 loot in mid-March, without stating the amount, as well as fines and power-of-charge fees including the confiscation of Google assets.
However, what is known is that Google still maintains some useless services in Russia even if it fails the bankrap.
Among the free services that are still on offer are Gmail, Maps, Android Play and YouTube.
At the same time, Google was fined 7.2 billion rubles for failing to suppress content deemed unlawful by Russia and a penalty of 506 million rubles.
In the past, Alphabet has stated that Russia will account for 1% of its 2021 revenue and a report by the Interfax Moscow news agency confirming Google Russia's 2021 quotient is 134.3 billion.
