       "Unilever has been named as an international sponsor of war by the Ukrainian government after the Marmite, Dove and Domestos owner became subject to a law in Russia obliging all large companies operating in the country to contribute directly to its war effort.The move came as campaigners called on Unilever’s new boss, Hein Schumacher, who started work this weekend, to withdraw from Russia, where its local business continues to sell “essential” products from tea to ice-cream, after evidence emerged that it paid Moscow $331m in taxes last year.Unilever was placed on the sponsors of war list on Monday alongside companies including Procter & Gamble (P&G), the world’s largest manufacturer of household chemicals and personal care products, and the French supermarket group Leroy Merlin." #Unilever #Dove #Marmite #Domestos #ProcterAndGamble #LeroyMerlin #Ukraine #UkraineWar #Russia #SlavaUkrainiUnilever named ‘international sponsor of war’ by Ukraine | Unilever | The Guardian https://www.theguardian.com/business/2023/jul/03/unilever-named-international-sponsor-of-war-by-ukraine
