Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. has formulated a new action plan to prevent human rights violations, such as discrimination, forced labour, and child labour, throughout its supply chain, including with its business partners.

Japanese automaker Nissan will sell its Russian assets – including a factory in Saint Petersburg – to the Russian government, the industry and trade ministry in Moscow said.

The Japanese auto maker said it would sell all shares of its Russia unit to Moscow-based Central Research and Development Automobile and Engine Institute for one euro, or slightly less than a dollar. Nissan said it retained the option to buy back the entity and its operations within the next six years.

“In the current conditions, Nissan has decided to leave the Russian market,” it says. The brand will stop deliveries of new cars, but will continue servicing older models, the manufacturer said in a statement.
