(Reuters) - Russia's federal anti-monopoly service (FAS) fined Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) about $17.4 million, the regulator said on Tuesday, over what it said was the U.S. company's abuse of its dominant market position.

In a statement, the regulator said it had previously found that Apple forced Russian developers to use Apple's payment services with the iOS App Store, in violation of Russia's competition rules.
