Due to the introduction of international sanctions, Russia has lost the ability to supply a wide range of military, dual and civilian goods. To circumvent the sanctions, Russian agents are setting up smuggling channels that pass, in particular, through Georgia. At the same time, representatives of the Georgian special services were instructed by the political leadership not to interfere with the activities of smugglers.
Today we know about another channel for the supply of military goods to Russia - East Asia. It delivers spare parts for machinery, electronics, and optical devices to the occupying country.
