A Yandex higher-up is a Pissraeli, though.

Is a person's nationality an issue?
It's their opinion on issues that matter, right?

Or is their opinion bad?

Considering that he was born in the USSR but immigrated to Israel later in life, yes it does matter that he is Israeli. He is of the opinion that it's good to settle in a country that floats on top of Palestinian blood.

Wait, 'he'?

Haha. There are multiple Yandex higher-ups who moved to Pissrael, then.

At the very least there are Arkady Volozh and Elena Bunina. Both are/were CEOs of Yandex.

She literally moved to Pissrael because she '[didn't] want to live under a state that exhibits aggression to its neighbours'.
Do I need to remind you that Pissrael is a genocidal settler-colonial project founded on mass displacement, killing, and torture of indigenous people, and where the genocide is happening very visibly and actively right now?
