At the same time, the Russians resort to various schemes to circumvent sanctions and purchase equipment for their defense companies.
"Russian missiles and drones are made up of dozens of critical components that they import – import from other countries through various schemes. The Russian budget is critically dependent on oil and gas revenues. The Russian economy and Russian oligarchs cannot function properly without financial ties to global jurisdictions,” the president told the conference, adding that no less important are the personal assets of Putin's so-called“elite” who“love money” and“life of luxury”.

This is about security – ours and yours – and about basic human justice. And it is exactly what we must ensure through sanctions regimes – both ours and those of our partners," the President added.
As Ukrinform reported, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky stated the need to create a new international platform for controlling the export of dual-use goods. The platform should help end supplies of components for arms production to Russia. According to Zelensky, in 2024, Russian defense companies received machine tools from at least 12 countries.
