It seems that the press interprets suspending business in Russia as a show of solidarity with Ukraine. But isn't it also just a normal business response to the Ruble's freefall? The cynic in me takes the solidarity angle with a grain of salt.

It’s neither of those - ruble is not in a freefall and you are right to be cynical about solidarity. In reality this is just another manifestation of the cancel-culture, just on a whole other level, country scale.
