Decision trail

Decision date 16/12/2025 · Reference ↗

Machinery from New York-based company NSH USA Corporation used to build Russian weapons used in war on Ukraine. NSH USA's president told that NSH Group halted all trade with Russia after the invasion last year. But NSH signaled its intention to continue supplying Russia with its products in its annual report, published almost half-a-year after Russia's full-scale invasion had commenced, believing any contracts signed before the Russian offensive started were above board. The H in NSH, a subsidiary called Hegenscheidt-MFD, made no fewer than 40 shipments to Russia worth $17 million between May of 2022 and March of this year. "NewsHour" reached out to the U.S. Department of Commerce to check if NSH had applied for American export licenses for the machines we traced to Russian defense firms.But the agency said it couldn't comment on company-specific licensing requests. 16.12.2025: The legal entity NSH RUSS LLC was liquidated.
