The deal makes Nissan the major player to exit Russia since Moscow sent tens of thousands of troops into Ukraine in February. It mirrors a move by Nissan’s chief shareholder, French automaker Renault, which sold its majority stake in Russian carmaker Avtovaz to a Russian investor in May.
The ministry said that the sale to NAMI will include Nissan’s production and research facilities in St Petersburg and its sales and marketing center in Moscow.
