"Russian Military Imports from US and EU Firms Remain Strong Despite Sanctions: Analysis"

A joint report by US and Ukrainian researchers reveals that Russia has imported nearly $9 billion worth of "high priority" electronics for its weapons, with over 43.9% originating from US and allied countries, despite sanctions. Tech from companies like Intel and AMD has been found in Russian weapons, with much of it being sold through China and Hong Kong. The report advocates for stronger sanctions and export controls to curb Russia's military capabilities, as Ukrainian President Zelenskyy calls for 100% effective measures to block circumvention of sanctions.
