Russia says Google must correct contracts with mobile manufacturers by Nov. 18

Russia’s anti-monopoly agency said Monday that Google Inc had until Nov. 18 to address charges that it was abusing its market position in the country.

The FAS anti-monopoly body said Google must correct its contracts with manufacturers after ruling in September that the software giant had broken the law by pre-instaling certain applications on mobile devices.

The case, launched by local competitor Yandex, is being watched keenly in other countries where Google capitalizes on the popularity of its Android mobile operating system.
