Following Russia's invasion of Ukraine, Netflix is discontinuing its service in the nation.

"We have chosen to cease our service in Russia due to the situation on the ground," a spokeswoman stated Sunday afternoon.

The Russian market accounts for a minor portion of Netflix's overall revenue. The company has slightly under 1 million paid subscribers in Russia,, previously reported, compared to its 222 million total paid memberships across the worldwide.

Following Russia's invasion of Ukraine, the streaming service halted initiatives and acquisitions in the country. It was working on four Russian-language programmes in post-production. Netflix also refused to carry news channels in Russia due to Russian regulations.

Disney said early last week that all film premieres in the United States will be halted, including the new Pixar feature "Turning Red." Following closely behind were Warner Bros., Sony, Paramount Pictures, and Universal Pictures.
