In a recent video interview to The Washington Post, the President of Microsoft said that the IT giant plans to reduce the presence in the Russian Federation in the future.

The reduction will continue until nothing remains of our presence in Russia, said Brad Smith. The president did not give any comments on supporting users and Microsoft users and products. There is also no information whether such restrictions for Xbox services in Russia will be introduced.

Earlier it became known that the company limited citizens of the Russian Federation the possibility of downloading the distributions of Windows 10 and Windows 11 from the official website.
