So, I finally figured out why I have been getting the quote above when I am trying to buy VEON. I have existing shares in this stock and wanted to buy the dip, but can't because of the quote above. I know it is based in Amsterdam. However, I learned it was founded in Moscow :-(. There is a letter to investors talking about how the company is not party to some shenanigans that board members were a part of (nothing to do w/ the war in Ukraine as far as I can tell). Because of the Russian connection. I am trying to figure out what type of stake Russia may have in the company and just abandon my stake. My tiny holding will not amount to anything. I don't want to fund Russia. Dump it and take the loss? Or is there something else I can do w/ it?
