Irn-Bru maker AG Barr have confirmed that they will be cutting supplies to Russia as the war in Ukraine continues.
This comes after western companies have been encouraged to cut ties with Russia following Putin's decision to send troops across Ukraine.
Scotland's national drink, Irn-Bru is supposedly Russia's third biggest selling soft drink and AG Barr have a franchise agreement with the Moscow Brewing Company MBC for the Irn-Bru brand in Russia.

Apple and Ikea have also said they will cease trading in the country.
However, as STV reports, AG Barr will no longer complete any orders "given the actions of the Russian state".
This comes as Finance Secretary Kate Forbes gave an open latter to the business community and asked companies to take 'economic action' over links and connections to Russia.
In the letter, Forbes explained how the Scottish Government will use all available powers to end trade and investment activity with Russia.
She wrote: “For any sanctions to be meaningful they will also have an impact on the countries and economies that are imposing them.
"That will be true here, as it will be across the rest of the UK, EU and US, however any price paid here is significantly less than that being paid by the people of Ukraine.”
