Netherlands – company convicted of breach of Russian sanctions

The District Court of Amsterdam has convicted a company on multiple charges of exporting military goods for a Russian end user. The intended Russian recipient of the exports was named as JSC Global Security, but the name of the convicted Dutch company was anonymised.

The goods  (mostly bullet proof vests and other military equipment) were stopped at Schiphol airport and had been brought from South Africa.

The company was fined €30,000 (half suspended for 2 years).
