Germany supplies technology for ammunition to Russia - the media

A German machine that uses computer tools to manufacture appropriate accurate tools that are needed for the production of fragmentation and foot shells can be sent to a plant in Russia from Turkey. German production equipment can be transported through Turkey to Russia. Bloomberg informs about it. The Spinner GmbH production machine goes to a plant in Russia from Turkey. The equipment, according to the publication, should be received in the fall.

It uses computer tools to manufacture appropriate accurate tools that are required for the production of fragmental and foot shells. These ammunition is used by Russian troops in Ukraine. "It is clear that as soon as the machine reaches Russia, we can do little to prevent its use for military purposes by Russia: time is important," the agency wrote.

The route of transportation of appropriate equipment-from Istanbul to the Russian port on the northeast coast of the Black Sea, journalists Bloomberg could not check independently. This indicates the challenges faced by EU authorities in the application of restrictions on Russia, aimed at weakening its defense capability. The Ukrainian Anti -Corruption Agency allegedly sent Germany and the Bavarian company to stop supplying high -grade equipment used by ammunition manufacturers.

The National Agency for the Prevention of Corruption in Kiev has reported the German government that the so -called Spinner GmbH production machine is heading to the Russian plant from Turkey. Ukraine emphasized that Russia managed to bypass the sanctions of the European Union for import of prohibited equipment. These technologies are used for military purposes, through countries such as Turkey and the United Arab Emirates.
