From Russia, no love.

What's in a name? Apparently, in Russia, it's the majority ownership of the government. "A new law came into force at the start of the year banning companies from naming themselves after a country. It means that firms with 'Russia' in their name may be forced to re-brand - an expensive process that will boost the government's coffers."

More on that story from Russia Today here.
