Now that we know more about this, I am imagining how things went.
- After the Russian attack, nobody wanted to deal with a Russian-owned company.
- Jolla management wanted to buy the Russian-owned company share.
- The Russian owner (unsurprisingly) refused.
- Jolla management called their lawyers.
- The lawyers said, “That’s fine. Here’s an €50k invoice. Do not pay it.”
- The lawyers sued Jolla for not paying the invoice.
- The court forced Jolla to sell their assets to pay the invoice.
- Jolla management (following their lawyers’ advice) stepped in and said, “Hey guys, we want to purchase those assets!”
Below is an image of Jolla management offering to purchase the assets.
