On the other hand, being seen to profit from the operations of a company so closely tied to the supply lines of the Russian military is morally indefensible. I wouldn’t worry too much about the profits going to Russians instead; with the sanctions now in place (especially the ones targeted by the US government against Russia’s dollar reserves) they are only ever going to get paid in increasingly worthless roubles anyway.
