Summary
Two years after halting exports to Russia, Apple's new Vision Pro goggles are being sold in Moscow before London or Paris. The availability of the goggles in Moscow demonstrates the difficulty of unraveling Russia's ties to the global economy. Despite Apple's statement that Vision Pro is only available in the US, it is being sold in Moscow at a higher price. The Russian government has ensured that Western products continue to flow into the country, even through parallel imports. Despite previous tensions, Apple's consumer-focused products continue to be sold in Russia.
