That's as shallow as "<anything Russian> is Russian government". Russian government certainly established strong leverage over Yandex (and every other major business for that matter), but they don't exactly own the company.
Such blanket statements really don't bring anything to the table.
PS: I think you might be confusing Yandex with VK. VK are known to be loyal to government and provide users' data to law enforcement at a whim, without proper procedures.
