The UAE is preparing their own sanctions against the Russian Federation: the flow of goods for war can exhaust - Bloomberg

Representatives of the Arab Emirates confirmed to reporters that trade with the Russian Federation would really restrict. Restrictions will affect "sensitive" goods suitable for future weapons production. The EU has reached some arrangements from the UAE concerning the supply of some goods to Russia, which are important for the continuation of the war in Ukraine. It is hoped that Turkey can soon join such restrictions. The details of possible arrangements are referred to in the article by Bloomberg.

The article states that the source of information is unnamed officials from the European Union. They assure that preliminary agreements were reached during the second week of November. Two Asian countries - the UAE and Turkey - can limit the emergence of "sensitive" goods used for military purposes. What "sensitive" goods are discussed, the media did not report. The publication appealed to the comments to the officials of both countries.

Arab officials have informed Bloomberg that their actions would be based on existing legislative acts that restrict exports to warring countries. Meanwhile, Turkish officials have not yet commented on the statements of anonymous sources with the EU. It should be noted that the EU and the US are trying to block the ways in which Russia is trying to bypass the sanctions imposed by invasion of Ukraine.

In particular, they find the ways in which the Kremlin gets electronics, the components of which are used for the production of weapons. Some of these paths ran through Turkey and the UAE, and investigators testified. Meanwhile, the Arab Emirates are trying to continue to maintain contacts with Moscow-this is evidenced by the participation of President of the UAE Muhammad Bin Zaid Al Nagayana in the Economic Forum, which took place in St. Petersburg in June.

However, the media reported that the Arab politician had to meet personally with the President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin, but seemed to deliberately avoid communication. On November 8, Focus wrote that Western politicians predicted a reduction in the possible UAE support as a war in Israel. It was stated that Ukraine hoped that the Arab Emirates could become intermediaries for peace talks and authoritative participants of the future peaceful summit.

On November 1, it became known about some details of 12 packages of sanctions that the EU plans to impose on Russia. According to preliminary estimates, restrictions on exports of goods, with a total amount of $ 5 billion. Goods - from industrial production and chemicals used for weapons. We remind you that the media reported the impact of sanctions on the speed of mobile Internet in Russia: speed has fallen due to the lack of new equipment.
