The US will limit the supply of chips in the fight against circumvention of sanctions against Russia

According to the agency, the new sanctions involve the introduction of additional export licensing requirements for chip manufacturers and suppliers. Before each transaction, they will have to apply to the US Department of Commerce to obtain the appropriate license and ensure that the supply does not involve military use.

US authorities will also identify third-party suppliers and warn them about the ban on sending American chips to Russia, the source clarifies.

Most microelectronics and chip companies that continue to cooperate with Russia are based in China, according to Bloomberg sources. Last year alone, Russia imported more than $1 billion worth of advanced chips that could likely be used to build missiles and other critical military equipment, according to the agency.

According to the same sources, Washington plans to blacklist eight companies based in Hong Kong that are suspected of supplying chips to Russia.

Let us recall that earlier, a member of the German Bundestag from the CDU/CSU, Carsten M�ller, said that the countries of the European Union need to work more intensively to identify companies, especially in third countries, that help Russia circumvent sanctions . In his opinion, it is necessary to sue companies that use this method of exporting their goods if they are really trying to circumvent sanctions.

Interrogation of 30 captured occupiers who were captured by the 3rd OShBr: "We were going to storm you on a UAZ." VIDEO
The 3rd separate assault brigade of the Armed Forces captured several large groups of Russian occupiers on their way to the Kharkiv region.

Journalist Tetyana Danylenko writes about this , Censor.NET informs .

"In theory, the brigade was supposed to recover there after 2 years of continuous stay in the worst points of the front. In reality, on the stretch where the 3rd OShbr was supposed to gain strength for new counterattacks, they are opposed by a very large group of the Russian army and every day in place of its 200th and 300th their adversary is bringing in new recruits.

The scale of the actions is also evidenced by the number of those taken prisoner - the media service of the 3rd OShbr is publishing interviews with 30 Russian servicemen at the same time," Danylenko notes.

The journalist draws attention to the fact that among the captured occupiers are not only contract workers, but mobs. Some of them received a summons in May 2024.

The Swedish Parliament calls for the transfer of Gripen aircraft to Ukraine
Western countries should give Ukraine everything it asks for, including Swedish Gripen aircraft.

Magnus Jacobson, member of the Swedish Parliament (Riksdag), a representative of the Christian Democratic Party, a member of the coalition, stated this in a commentary to Guildhall .

“My personal opinion remains the same. We must give Ukraine everything it asks for. I know that Ukraine is asking for Gripen aircraft, and I think that we should sell them to Ukraine. But if I understand correctly, the issue is a political decision. I don’t work in the government, I’m just a parliamentarian, but I noticed that now there is some kind of deal between Ukraine and its allies, within the framework of which Western countries want to supply F-16 aircraft as quickly as possible. While I'm proud of the Gripen, the F-16 is also a great airplane. We ( Sweden - ed. ), in turn, supplied Ukraine with two long-range radar detection aircraft ( Swedish ASC 890 aircraft, known as Saab 340AEW - ed. ). These are some of the best aircraft of this type in the world, which will give Ukraine very good eyes, the eyes of a hawk,” the politician noted.

“I am sure that Ukraine should receive everything - both F-16 and Gripen aircraft, but Sweden does not act as a separate player, we act in coordination with air defense coalitions for Ukraine within the European Union. So from the information that I received, I understood that we were asked to provide the radar system, and the partners would provide the F-16. But I hope that Sweden will someday supply Ukraine with Gripen aircraft, even if not now,” the Swedish parliamentarian concluded.

Let us recall that the deputy of the House of Representatives of the Belgian Parliament, the head of the commonwealth of Ukraine and Belgium, Georges Dalemany, also called on Western countries to speed up the supply of F16 to Ukraine . He noted that European countries, and in particular Belgium, realize that the front line in Europe is now in Ukraine. Therefore, it is extremely important to deliver F16 aircraft to Ukraine as quickly as possible.

Austria revoked accreditation of two Russian journalists
After a Russian journalist was expelled from Vienna, Moscow ordered the Austrian correspondent to leave Russia. Now it has become known that Austria deprived another TASS employee of her accreditation in April.

Austria has revoked the accreditation of two correspondents of the Russian news agency TASS in Vienna. The dpa agency learned about this on Tuesday, June 11, from the Austrian Ministry of the Interior. The day before, the Russian Foreign Ministry reported that the Austrian authorities ordered one TASS journalist, Ivan Popov, to leave the country.

However, according to the Ministry of Internal Affairs in Vienna, in April, “due to a negative assessment by the security authorities,” accreditation was taken away from another of his colleagues from TASS. More detailed reasons for this step were not given. The agency's statement indicates that the Russian news agency may register other journalists, who will also be subject to reliability checks by the Austrian authorities.

In response, the Russian Foreign Ministry revoked the accreditation of Maria Knieps-Witting, a journalist for the Austrian television company ORF in Moscow, demanding that she leave the country. The Austrian broadcaster called the decision incomprehensible . The country's Foreign Ministry also considered Moscow's retaliatory measures "completely unfounded."

The German Union of Journalists (DJV) said that the Russian Federation’s actions “have nothing to do with media freedom.”

The Viennese weekly newspaper Falter in March reported on the activities of Russian intelligence services in Vienna , also mentioning TASS employees. They, according to the secret dossier cited by the publication, “under journalistic cover” obtained information about the political circles of Austria, and one of the correspondents was an employee of the Foreign Intelligence Service of the Russian Federation.

Uniper terminates Russian gas supply contracts
• Formal end to gas supply relationship with Gazprom Export after positive ruling for Uniper in arbitration proceedings
• Arbitration tribunal has awarded Uniper the right to terminate its long-term gas supply contracts and an amount of more than �13 billion in damages for non-delivery of gas
• Uniper CEO Michael Lewis: “The ruling provides legal clarity for Uniper”

Uniper decided today to terminate its long-term Russian gas supply contracts and thus legally ended the long-term gas supply relationship with the Russian state-owned company Gazprom Export. The decision was made possible after an arbitration tribunal on June 7 awarded Uniper the right to terminate the contracts and awarded it an amount of more than �13 billion in damages for the gas volumes not supplied by Gazprom Export since mid-2022. Although only limited gas volumes had been delivered since June 2022 and no gas volumes since the end of August 2022, the long-term gas supply contracts between the two companies were still legally in force and individual contracts would have continued to exist until the mid-2030s.

After Uniper suffered substantial losses due to the Russian gas supply restrictions, the company initiated arbitration proceedings against Gazprom Export at the end of 2022. The option of dispute resolution via an arbitration tribunal was contractually agreed and had in the past in respect of other disputes been invoked repeatedly by both sides. The tribunal, seated in Stockholm, ruled in accordance with Swiss law. The arbitration ruling is legally binding and final.

AfD politician who fled to Russia wins elections in Hamburg

41-year-old Olga Petersen recently left Germany with her children, moving to Russia. This did not prevent her from winning a mandate in local elections in Hamburg.

The Alternative for Germany candidate received 3,460 votes in Hamburg's Hausbruch district. These votes are enough for her to join the district assembly. To complete the count, a small number of mail-in ballots remain to be counted. The AfD believes that these ballots will not affect the final election result.

Olga Petersen, born in Omsk in 1982, recently left for Russia with three children, informing the school about it via email. Petersen claimed that the authorities planned to take her children away from her, although in fact she was only reprimanded about their behavior at school.

After leaving, Olga Petersen, who called the elections in Russia “open and free,” was expelled from the Hamburg parliament.

US sanctions pro-Russian Moldovan governor

The U.S. has imposed sanctions on Evghenia Gutul, the governor of Moldova's Gagauzia region, for her ties to pro-Russian oligarch and politician Ilan Shor, the U.S. Treasury announced on June 12.

Shor has been repeatedly accused of trying to destabilize Moldova, which he fled in 2019. He has been under U.S. sanctions since October 2022, as has his pro-Russian political party of the same name.

Gutul was elected governor of Gagauzia, an autonomous territory in southern Moldova that partly borders Ukraine's Odesa Oblast, in July 2023 as a Shor party candidate.

Gutul traveled to Russia in March 2024, where she was pictured shaking hands with Russian President Vladimir Putin, and attended the St. Petersburg Economic International Economic Forum in early June.

Moldova's Prime Minister Dorin Recean said he was "grateful for the U.S.'s commitment to support us in combating corruption and countering Kremlin interference."
