“What truly concerns us is that some representatives of unscrupulous businesses may view Kazakhstan as a platform for circumventing sanctions and, taking advantage of this, resell products manufactured in the EU, which represent high-tech positions and can be used in the armament of the Russian Federation. For instance, in missiles, drones, and artillery that are, in turn, used to kill Ukrainian citizens,” he noted.
He also pointed out that “we are satisfied with the cooperation we have established with Kazakhstan to prevent the circumvention of sanctions.”
“During our work, we have observed significant progress—a notable decrease in the volume of such products exported to the Russian Federation (strategically important goods to the Russian market in order to avoid supporting the military-industrial complex and providing illegal exports of these goods—Ed.), and I believe that by continuing our cooperation in this constructive manner, we will be able to find solutions to pressing issues,” he concluded.
