MT Newswires Live03:03

Apple (AAPL) received a warning from Russia's anti-monopoly watchdog to address alleged discriminatory practices against Russian search engines and software, and failure to remedy the violations by July 15 could result in a fine of up to 4 billion roubles ($51.6 million), Reuters reported Wednesday.

The company must ensure that Russian software, including search engines and the Max messenger, is pre-installed on its devices, the report said, citing the Federal Antimonopoly Service.

Apple did not immediately respond to a request for comment by MT Newswires.
