British companies continue to export weapons and technology to Russia

47
Great Britain practically did not cut supplies to Russia weapons and dual-use technologies. The country continues to operate hundreds of licenses for the sale of sniper rifles, body armor, military equipment, and cryptographic equipment to the Russian Federation. This was reported by the TV channel RT citing a report prepared by a parliamentary committee of the British parliament.

British companies continue to export weapons and technology to Russia


According to the committee of the House of Commons, which controls the export of weapons, the country continues to have 251 licenses for the supply of military goods to Russia. The total amount of exports is at least $ 225 million. Recently (since the beginning of the crisis in Ukraine) only 31 licenses have been suspended.

As you know, the UK, together with the US, took the toughest stance against Russia in connection with the Ukrainian events and call on the EU to impose new sanctions against the Russian Federation, including a ban on the supply of weapons.

        225 million is not that much, which is good. And what exactly do we import from Britt? Who knows?

            At the same time, the British demand from the French to freeze the contract for the Mistrals, and Hollande demands that the opponents deal with their contracts. belay
            Europe is in favor of sanctions from the EU, but not from its own country. Business, nothing personal.

              The governments of Germany and Great Britain have suspended the export of military and dual-use products to Russia. In particular, as reported by Defense News, Germany refused to supply Russia with a combat training complex. The UK, as Jane's clarifies, has suspended licenses for the production of sniper rifles, cartridges, and some parts for aircraft and helicopters in Russia.

            unlikely, a riot ... rather they take an example from the Americans themselves ... they themselves, having imposed sanctions, continue to cooperate with RosKosmos, continue to buy rocket engines and helicopters in Russia ...

          Yes, essentially nothing. They just puff their cheeks for the sake of importance, and they themselves are afraid that our nouveau riches, with stolen capital, from their island, would not go out of their way with fright. laughing

      Whoever doubts, sanctions are sanctions, and business comes first. Even during World War II, some companies in the USA and Great Britain supplied weapons to both Hitler and Stalin.
      They will not sell openly, there will be semi-legal hidden smuggling - business is business.
      As in the old joke:
      "An Israeli tank is crawling into a Palestinian trench,
      Sayid fires back, he has a hundred forces, he throws grenades and bam ... the cartridges are out, he is ready to bring down ...
      Then Haim gets out of the Israeli tank and shouts: "Hey Said, are you out of cartridges? Sell?"

        I subscribe to the above. war is a profitable business. and there is a lot of evidence of that. If you read the history, it will be clear that the war is the best way out of the crisis

      The international air show Air 14 Payerne is celebrating its centenary this year, and the sensation of the event should be the Russian Knights performing in Switzerland for the first time. The air show website says the Russian aerobatic team is designed to maintain "air superiority" and "is capable of performing all the main tasks of air warfare."

      Such formulations, according to press reports, cause outrage in Switzerland. Social Democratic National Council member Chantal Gallade said she considered the participation of a Russian aerobatic team in the air show an "extremely sensitive" topic. An Air 14 spokesman confirmed that Vityaz's participation could indeed be questioned .-------- Some woodpeckers see a threat everywhere from Russia WELL THEN LOOK ON THE BALLOONS DURING THE AIR SHOW AND THE BALLS FROM PRODUCT # 2 Nekhai blow them habitually

      Small-haired people always milked everyone and lived at someone else's expense, which continues to this day. But they are trying to push the French and Germans away from Russia. Such is the policy now. The United States and the Kiev junta planned the shooting of Boeing in order to destroy the entire Geyrope against Russia, and they succeeded due to the stupidity and narrow-mindedness of the Gay Europeans themselves. Well, to hell with them, let the USA listen. Here Putin allegedly found a language with the President of the Netherlands and immediately a message that Ryugge, the President of the Netherlands, agreed with the United States to impose sanctions on Russia. So think about how to behave with the leaders of other states, what can be expected from them.
