The National Agency on Corruption Prevention (NACP) has added 14 Russian importers of machine tools from the German manufacturer SPINNER to the list of candidates for international and Ukrainian sanctions. The decision was made after receiving information about the delivery of a universal machining center (machine) from the German manufacturer SPINNER to the Russian JSC Serov Mechanical Plant from the production facilities of the plant in Turkey. Russia needs this machine to implement a program to increase the production of high-explosive fragmentation shells for Russian tanks, which are then used in the war against Ukraine.
Most of the Russian weapons have been produced and continue to be produced on the machines of the G7 countries over the past decade, as Russia itself does not have such logistical and technological support domestically. During the "shell famine," such equipment became critically important for Russia. It actively uses intermediary companies to purchase and deliver strategically important machine tools, spare parts, tools, software, and fluids to continue the war.
The mentioned machine was shipped from Turkey and is expected by the Russian arms factory at the end of September. The importer is the Russian LLC Yumak.
After the start of the full-scale invasion, the volume of Spinner equipment supplies to Russia in 2022-2023 increased by more than 500%.
Among the companies that also help Russia circumvent sanctions are those included in the lists of candidates for sanctions:
MACHINE GROUP LLC
MASHEX-SERVICE LTD
VEGA-OM LLC
AVBIS LLC
NOVOKOMINVEST LLC
ITB SERVICE LLC
VERNA LLC
DVKC LLC
CENTRE OF ENGINEERING SOLUTIONS (TSENTR INZHENERNYKH RESHENII) LLC
NEVIZ LLC
SPINNER TECHNOLOGY
TTK KAMMARKET LLC
SPINNER LLC
YUMAK LLC
For the record, the NACP's War and Sanctions portal has a new section "Candidates for Sanctions" that will help you easily find potential candidates for sanctions both in Ukraine and in the countries of the sanctions coalition. The section also offers a list of justifications and evidence base for quick and effective application of sanctions.
The role of the NACP in the sanctions policy is envisaged in the Roadmap for Individual Sanctions developed by the Stanford International Working Group on Russian Sanctions.
