Due to sanctions, Qualcomm stopped selling chips to Russian companies

Qualcomm no longer sells its semiconductors to Russian companies. This was stated by Qualcomm vice president nett Tibbits in response to a tweet by Mikhail Fedorov.

On March 16, the head of the Ministry of digital development called on Qualcomm not to cooperate with Russia, because sales of goods in this country help kill thousands of Ukrainians. In response, Tibbits noted that Qualcomm adheres to the sanctions imposed by the United States, and does not sell its products to Russian companies. In addition, Qualcomm has transferred funds to organizations that support Ukraine, and doubles donations from its employees.

Thanks @Qualcomm for stopping selling its products to russian companies. @NateTibbits thank you so much for your support! If you want to help as much as possible, you can send your satellite phones for ukrainian rescuers, so they will be able to respond and communicate faster. t.co/hFXHvWVLPL

After that, Fedorov thanked for the support and asked Qualcomm to send satellite phones to Ukrainian rescuers so that they could communicate faster. So far, the company has not responded to this offer.

Qualcomm is one of the world's largest corporations that creates semiconductors and develops wireless technologies. As noted by Reuters, Qualcomm receives less than 1% of its total profit from the Russian and Ukrainian markets.
