Do you want EU to lift sanctions against you? Great. Here are the requirements you must fulfill:

  • Condemn publicly Russian war on Ukraine.

  • Condemn Putin's authoritarianism.

  • Donate part of your wealth to Ukrainian government.

  • The fact that you created a search engine, help authorities track Ukrainian kidnapped children in Russia and Belarus.

  • Besides the previous point, help authorities track every war criminal in Russian territory.

  • Other necessary requirements to bring justice and peace.

Get fucked dude. Sanction every Russian citizen on the planet. If they aren't living in Russia show us how much you denounce this shit by giving up your citizenship.
