The indictment (and our story to come) stems from a FBI New York investigation and a Justice Department Task Force KleptoCapture investigation which also involves illicit sales of Venezuelan oil to a Russian aluminum company controlled by an oligarch and a Chinese oil company.
And from Reuters:
NEW YORK, Oct 19 (Reuters) - U.S. prosecutors on Wednesday charged five Russian nationals for sanctions evasion and other charges for using a German company to ship military technologies bought from U.S. manufacturers, as well as Venezuelan oil, to Russian buyers.
Federal prosecutors in Brooklyn said some of the electronic components purchased by Russian nationals Yury Orekhov and Svetlana Kuzurgasheva have been found in Russian weapons platforms seized on the battlefield in Ukraine.
…
Prosecutors said Orekhov and Uss used a Germany-based company they own, Nord-Deutsche Industrieanlagenbau GmbH, also known as NDA, as a front to purchase the military and dual-use technologies like semiconductors, radars and satellites.
