How did over $6.3 million in sanctioned metallurgical and shipbuilding equipment reach the Russian Defense-Industrial Complex?

In this episode of the Trade Compliance Brief, we break down the recent OCCRP investigation into Redwing Metal, a Turkish intermediary utilized to bypass EU export bans. We analyze the complex beneficial ownership structures involved—specifically the role of an EU national residing in Switzerland—and what this means for personal criminal liability under European law.

Tune in for a deep dive into the mechanics of third-country circumvention and learn the critical red flags your organization needs to integrate into its Combating Proliferation Financing (CPF) and end-use verification frameworks today.

Key Takeaways:

  • The mechanics of re-exporting sensitive dual-use goods through non-aligned jurisdictions like Turkey.
  • How complex beneficial ownership is used to obscure EU national involvement in sanctions evasion.
  • The escalating legal risk and personal criminal liability for executives facilitating prohibited flows.
  • Actionable steps to strengthen route analysis and sensitive goods scrutiny.
