Russia took control of the local businesses of Swiss food giant Nestle and French supermarket chain Auchan in the Kremlin’s largest takeover of foreign corporate assets since at least 2024 amid rising tensions with Europe. The US is expected to hold off announcing new tariffs on China and other trading partners until after next week’s summit between Presidents Xi Jinping and Donald Trump, according to people familiar with the matter, a delay that could preserve such a threat as leverage in the negotiations.
