Coursera is suspending all content from Russia

In their blog post, Coursera claims: "we will not support the financial or reputational benefit of Russian instructors or institutions on Coursera while this tragedy is taking place, nor will we look to profit from doing business in the region amid this humanitarian crisis. As a result we are suspending all business in Russia."

However, they responded to criticism in a related linkedin post by stating: "United States export control regulations prohibit U.S. businesses, such as Coursera, from offering services to users in specific sanctioned regions. You can learn more about these restrictions in our Learner Help Center"

It seems to me that they forced not to do business with Russia by the sanctions, but tried to portray it as their own choice. What do you guys think about this?
