Turkish firms have put Russia's electronics and spare parts necessary for the army - WSJ

Russian companies under US sanctions have purchased generators, elevators, boards and other equipment in Turkey. Among the customers are enterprises that produce weapons for the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. Last year, Turkish companies exported goods to Russian enterprises under US sanctions due to a full -scale invasion of the Russian Federation into Ukraine. The total amount of transactions is at least $ 18. 5 million.

The list of products supplied by the aggressor also contains American goods. About it on Friday, February 3, reports Wall Street Journal. According to journalists, at least 13 Turkish companies have exported a number of goods in the Russian Federation, including plastics, rubber products and vehicles. It is also reported that firms have been sent to Russia at least three consignments of US -made goods.

In addition, Turkish companies sent an aggressor to the elevators, electrical generators, printed fees and other goods worth $ 16 million for violations of US export control. In addition, the publication claims that from Turkey goods received a subsidiary of the Russian corporation "Tactical Missile Weapons", which produces weapons systems for the Navy of the Russian Federation, as well as "Promtechnology", which produces rifles for the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation.

Also, at the end of last year, Washington warned Ankara that Turkish citizens could be fined and sentenced to service for maintenance of US aircraft flying in and out of export control.

Rubber, for example, is used to produce plates that protect Russian T-80 combat tanks. American sanctions and export control Also aimed at the plastics that need Russia to produce tanks, ships, helmets and bulletproof vests, "the publication reads.
