MOSCOW, April 3. /TASS/. The government will not prohibit Russian companies from operating abroad, Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin said on Wednesday.

"I believe it is impossible to stop our companies from doing business abroad, especially in friendly countries. We will not do this," Mishustin said.

"Of course, this does not mean that we will turn a blind eye to those who simply create profit centers abroad and try to pump funds there at the expense of our natural and labor resources, and develop foreign economies. We will fight them," he noted.

According to him, the most important thing is that businesses have competitive conditions for operating in Russia. "SARs (special administrative regions - TASS) solve almost all these issues," Mishustin said.
