- Britain's GlaxoSmithKline said on Wednesday its consumer arm stopped imports of supplements and vitamins into Russia as the drugmaker seeks to minimise ties with Moscow over its invasion of Ukraine.

"We support global sanctions and will comply with them," had said earlier on its website. "We have taken a precautionary approach to stop, to the fullest extent possible, any direct involvement and support to the Russian government and military."

(This story has been refiled to correct headline and text to drop reference to GSK cutting ties with the Russian government on April 6, as the news is dated and was published to GSK's website a few weeks ago)
