It's not a pleasure what's happening in Ukraine and Publix is standing in solidarity with Ukrainians. The store is banning Russian booze from its supermarkets and liquor stores by not selling vodka at any of its stores.
Publix Director of Communications Maria Brous told FOX Business, "Publix stands with the people of Ukraine. The following Russian-made vodka brands have been removed from our liquor store shelves: Beluga, Ruskova, Russian Standard, and Zyr."
But it looks like it doesn't just stop with Publix. Over the past week, we've seen an increase in boycotts against Russian-made vodka. Total Wine and More tweeted that they've "removed all Russian-made products from our shelves."
