The RheinMetall concern supplied goods to the Russian Federation during a full -scale war in Ukraine - the media

The German company confessed that their goods were entering the territory of Russia until June last year. This happened within the limits of previously signed contracts. The subsidiary of the German concern Rheinmetall sold Russia spare parts for engines after the start of a full -scale war in Ukraine. About it reports the German newspaper Handelsblatt on June 20. The RheinMetall acknowledged that their goods were recently coming to Russia last June.

Supplies were made within the framework of previously signed contracts, the execution of which was strongly delayed due to a number of complex inspection and approval procedures. Last spring, the Rheinmetall Board decided to stop trade with the Russian Federation. At the same time, the company stated that the sale of spare parts to engines does not go against this decision.

According to representatives of the concern, the aforementioned supplies allowed to avoid the penalties stipulated by the contract. That is why the MS MotorService Space Spare Spare parts, which produces pistons, oil pumps, water pumps and valves, sold its goods to Russian wholesalers. According to the authors of the publication, Rheinmetall plays an important role in providing the Ukrainian army after the start of a full -scale invasion of the Russian Federation.

The concern produces not only artillery, tanks and ammunition, but also components for cars and trucks. It should be reminded that on June 16, RheinMetall CEO, Armin Papperger, declared his intention to enter into a multi-billion dollar agreement with Germany and put Ukraine's first 35-mm shells for Gepard's self-propelled artillery installations.
