VK has sued Apple in the Moscow Arbitration Court, the Russian news agency Interfax reported.
Russian tech conglomerate VK has initiated legal action against Apple at the Moscow Arbitration Court, according to Interfax. The action seeks Apple's compliance in reinstating VK's applications to the App Store and re-establishing users’ notification access. Should the court's decision be disregarded, VK holds Apple liable for a penalty.
On June 25, Apple removed all VK-developed apps from its App Store, citing sanctions as the rationale. The apps affected comprise the messaging platform Max, Zen, Odnoklassniki, VKontakte, VK Video, and others. Following the removal, VK's apps were also taken down from Google Play.
