Decision trail

Decision date 05/11/2025 · Reference ↗

It is noted that back in 2012, the company planned to enter the Russian market and for several years analyzed the sales and implementation of its technologies in the Russian Federation. Against the background of these contacts, private companies operating under the name VTA appeared, in particular VTA Eurasia, which positioned itself as the official representative of the Austrian company. An officer of the Russian GRU, associated with a special unit for sabotage operations abroad, visited Austria for years and established contacts with an engineer of VTA Austria GmbH, a company that is part of a global wastewater treatment network. This investigation clarifies the interaction between Russian intelligence and the Austrian company, as well as the context of the use of technologies in countries around the world, including Ukraine.
