They now run it from Dubai, and Pavel Durov says it has more than 500 million monthly active users.

"Markets were cheering this economic recovery and return to strong economic growth, but the cheers will turn to tears if the inflation outbreak pushes businesses and consumers to the brink of recession," he added.
