(Reuters) – Marriott International (NASDAQ:MAR) Inc said on Friday it will suspend its operations in Russia after more than 25 years.
The company on March 10 decided to pause the opening of upcoming hotels and all future hotel developments and investments in Russia, following Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine.
“We remain focused on taking care of our Russia-based associates,” Marriott said.
Hilton Worldwide Holdings (NYSE:HLT) Inc in March suspended all new development activity in Russia and closed its corporate office in Moscow.
