The European Union has included Uzbekistan's Trade Engine System company in the new sanctions list as part of the 17th package of sanctions adopted against Russia. This was announced on the official website of the European Union here.
According to the report, this company is suspected of assisting the Russian military-industrial complex. Therefore, strict restrictions have been imposed on the export of products and technologies that can be used in both civilian and military purposes.
The new sanctions are directed against Russia's "shadow fleet" of 149 oil tankers, as well as companies from third countries suspected of supporting Russia in circumventing sanctions. These include companies from the UAE, Turkey, Serbia, and Vietnam.
For information, the Trade Engine System company is engaged in the transportation of goods by rail, automobile, maritime, and air transport. The company was registered in July 2022, with a charter capital of 10 million Uzbek som. Its founder and director is Nosirjon Akbarov.
We remind you that on the occasion of the three-year anniversary of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, the European Union had also included an Uzbek company in its 16th package of sanctions. At that time, Uzstanex, a company dealing with the wholesale of mechanical devices, was sanctioned by the EU.
