Due to US IT companies, it is increasingly difficult to maintain and update computer infrastructure, and attempts to bypass sanctions through supply through neighboring countries are increasingly encouraging obstacles. The usual "gray" deliveries of neighbors are ready to refuse because of the fear of getting under secondary US sanctions - banks refuse to pay for special codes that clearly mean specific equipment prohibited for import to Russia.
Restrictions apply to, in particular any transfer of money or providing services to the Podanctic Russian Federation. Now Russian companies are looking for other loopholes, for example, they try to import equipment under alternative codes to hide the real name of the goods. Another option involves the purchase through third countries of fully finished equipment to subsequently disassemble it into separate components.
But this will lead to a significant rise in price of components, and all costs will be transferred to the consumer as an increased price for services. In addition, if the Russians are not able to quickly find the bypass paths and adjust the uninterrupted chain of supplies of components, then, according to the experts surveyed by the publication, about half a year, Russia will cover a shortage of computer components, which will again lead to a significant rise in price.
