Decision trail

Decision date 17/05/2023 · Reference ↗

The French company Marchante supplied the Russian arms company Kurganpribor with various technical products during the war (including fuses for Grad and Smerch MLRS systems). Marchante was not deterred by the fact that Kurganpribor was an official partner of the Kalashnikov Corporation, and that the owner of the Russian company was Sergey Muratov, a senator in the Federation Council Russia’s upper house of parliament. Kurganpribor was blacklisted by the EU only in December – Muratov, however, has been under personal sanctions since last March. This did not interrupt his business relationship with Marchante.
