Washington accused the Russian Defense Ministry of violating US law and imposed sanctions.

Oh, what's going to happen now? Are they really going to ban entry for tanks and other equipment belonging to the Russian Ministry of Defense?

[Svarog5570]

Well, there are no sanctions against the Aerospace Forces, which means missiles can fly freely to the US.

[papas-57]

They will simply ban the entry of ballistic and cruise missiles, especially nuclear ones, into the US territory.

Well, since we're now under sanctions anyway, does that mean we can openly transfer the aforementioned technologies to the aforementioned countries?

The brazen Americans have an interesting logic: they can transfer any weapons to any country, even deploy their nuclear weapons in other countries, but Russia is prohibited from doing so.
Perhaps, in response to their sanctions, we should deploy our nuclear weapons in Iran, Mongolia and Cuba?

[AllX_VahhaB]

Capitalists need to be dealt a blow! That's the only way to hurt them! We need to completely and utterly abandon the dollar! And not in mutual settlements, but in pricing!!! The price of any goods, services, or contracts is initially fixed in dollars, even if the transaction is settled in another currency.
And the location of the missiles is just a toy...

Are you sure of the loyalty of these countries? Won't they then sell these weapons to the enemy?

Once upon a time, the Roman Empire declared sanctions against certain Parthian troops. Parthia sat down and wept!

Boeing would be banned from purchasing Russian products.

[AllX_VahhaB]

Are you talking about titanium? Its procurement has been suspended since 2022...

[topol717]

You're mistaken. The sanctions are against VSMPO, which is prohibited from purchasing equipment and technology from the US, but the US can buy their products. And as far as I know, they still only buy nose landing gear from us, because no one else in the world can produce such high-quality products.

[AllX_VahhaB]

Quote from: topol717

You're wrong,

Boeing currently does not purchase titanium from Russia. The company suspended such purchases in 2022. This decision was made amid geopolitical changes, when Boeing also closed its technical departments in Moscow and Kyiv and ceased technical support for Russian airlines. The company's press service explained that they had built up titanium reserves and a network of alternative suppliers (from the US, Japan, China, and Kazakhstan), so production continued. Prior to this, Boeing had long been a major buyer: for example, in 2021, it signed a strategic partnership memorandum with VSMPO-Avisma (the world's largest titanium producer), and Russian titanium was used for various models—the 737, 777, 787, and others.
At the same time, discussions of possible reverse cooperation have periodically surfaced publicly. For example, in February 2025, First Deputy Prime Minister Denis Manturov stated that Russia was prepared to consider resuming purchases if Boeing expressed interest. However, at that time, there was no official indication from the company itself.
So, as of August 2026, the situation remains the same: Boeing will not make any direct purchases of titanium from Russia.

Then it's not me who's wrong, but the AI ​​getting its information from the internet...

[topol717]

They don't buy titanium; they buy finished products, in particular, the nose landing gear strut.

Joint ventures are involved in the production of some landing gear components for a number of Boeing models. One well-known joint venture is Ural Boeing Manufacturing (UBM) in Russia (Verkhnyaya Salda, Sverdlovsk Oblast). It was established by Boeing and the Russian company VSMPO-Avisma. The company performs the initial machining of titanium forgings, which are then sent to Boeing factories for final assembly.

In 2022, the company suspended operations after Boeing excluded VSMPO-Avisma from its list of approved suppliers.
UBM was a joint venture between Boeing and VSMPO-AVISMA Corporation and was engaged in rough machining of titanium forgings.

In 2022, the situation changed dramatically. Boeing removed VSMPO-AVISMA from its list of approved suppliers. At the same time, the plant's operations were subject to restrictions related to export licenses (from the US and Japanese governments), making it impossible to fully utilize its key machine tools. As a result, UBM suspended production operations.
At the same time, the company formally retains its status as “operating” according to the registers, but it currently has no active production program.

The Russian aviation industry has seriously taken up the production of American Boeing aircraft. According to the US Customs Service, in 2024 Exports of Russian parts for American aircraft increased by 1,6 times.

Russian-made landing gear proved to be the most popular for American aircraft. This is not surprising. These landing gear components are made from a unique titanium-nickel alloy, the formula of which is known only to metallurgists in Norilsk.

At which plant in Norilsk are they manufactured? The struts were produced at Ural Boeing Manufacturing (UBM) in Russia (Verkhnyaya Salda, Sverdlovsk Oblast).

The United States has purchased the largest amount of Russian aircraft parts in three years.

Yes, a whole bunch of them, they're reposting each other. RIA Novosti threw it in, "after analyzing US Customs data" and off we go for a walk!
Can I see the original source? That US Customs data? I can read it in the original language, I speak it...
And by the way, why only from November 2024? What about 2025? Or didn't US Customs report to RIA Novosti for last year? Or for the first half of this year?

Well, you Declarant- must understand foreign economic activity.
"Now American companies it is prohibited to purchase these structures of the Russian Ministry of Defense have goods and services, provide them with assistance, sell them something, etc."

[Declarant]

Yes, I'm familiar with foreign trade. But I don't recall any close cooperation between our military departments in trade. The exception might be rocket engines for space launches. Although... I do recall... the Bundeswehr once bought carbon black from us for tire production. But that's NATO.

The presence of real estate in the United States by the so-called "elite" of Russia has a very negative impact on American domestic legislation.

[Samaks]

Apparently, Russian military personnel, in order to comply with US domestic law, must be US citizens. Just like our Department of Defense—the US Department of War. Or am I missing something?

Exactly The Americans have an unshakable belief that everyone must comply with their laws.

[tralflot1832]

I really want to tell the State Department: So what? What's next? We'll continue to transport weapons to our partners just as we did before, only now the Russian Navy will accompany weapons from Russia by sea. And in the DPRK, we will soon put a road bridge into operation; the Anglo-Saxons were worried about this - a truck is more difficult to track than a railway car or a sea container.

Well, okay, at least it’s still possible to surrender to our forces.

As ordered... Just recently, Peskov noted that Russia would await proposals and considered the American side sincere. Receive and sign.

If the President of the Russian Federation, the Government of the Russian Federation, the State Duma of the Russian Federation, and Sberbank of the Russian Federation cannot impose one small counter-sanction against the West and the United States, where 10 Russian kopecks are equal to one British pound sterling, one US dollar, or one euro, then to truly make the Russian Federation a fair and social state, as the President of the Russian Federation says and as enshrined in the Constitution of the Russian Federation, all deputies and ministers need to raise the salaries and pensions of other Russian citizens to the level of salaries of deputies and ministers of the Russian Federation. And most importantly, they need to not piss themselves doing this. The Federal Antimonopoly Service will exercise strict, and where necessary, brutal, control to prevent prices from skyrocketing, and that's all.

[Fitter65]

Any American can be jailed for violating Russian law, and I won't even mention their military. Their actions fall under virtually every article of the Russian Criminal Code regarding military crimes. Except for leaving their unit without leave and desertion. And they can easily be jailed under the other articles. And for the illegal possession and transportation of weapons and ammunition. After all, no one in Russia has given them permission to do so.

We're expecting the next round of sanctions, banning the laws of physics and chemistry, as their use without US oversight poses a threat to US national security.
