تقرير: شركة صربية صدّرت معدات بقيمة 27.5 مليون يورو إلى منشآت عسكرية روسية

لماذا يهمّ ذلك

تربط المواد التيstract من地貌-justice byintellectual the reported supply chain a company not sanctioned by the United States or the European Union with sanctioned Russian military-industrial enterprises. The equipment reportedly reached manufacturers of aircraft components, missile systems, and navigation and stabilization systems for Russian fighter aircraft, raising questions about sanctions effectiveness and Serbia's export-control system. Grindex's continued supplies in 2026 suggest that the supply relationship persisted beyond the initially documented period, while its recovering profits and export dependence provide financial context.

ماذا حدث

Serbian company Grindex, founded in 2003 and based in Kikinda in northern Serbia, exported approximately €27.5 million in metalworking equipment to Russia after the full-scale invasion. According to data from the Main Intelligence Directorate of Ukraine's Ministry of Defence, imports of Grindex equipment continued at least from March 2022 to March 2025, with reports also indicating continued supplies in 2026.

Grindex was added to the intelligence agency's public list of companies supplying goods to Russia's military-industrial sector. Some equipment was delivered through intermediaries not covered by Western sanctions and later reached sanctioned Russian defence enterprises. Two grinding machines supplied through AMG reached Rostec enterprises, including the I. Rumyantev Machine-Building Production Association and the Ufa Aggregate Production Association Gidravlika. Other reports say the equipment reached the Machine-Building Design Bureau, which produces the Iskander-M missile system, and the Perm Scientific-Production Instrument-Building Company, which produces navigation and stabilization systems for MiG-29 and Su-27 fighters.

AMG entered the US sanctions list in 2023 and the EU list at the end of 2024. Grindex signed an agreement with AMG in December 2022, and reportedly completed delivery of a €778,000 machine through AMG after AMG had been added to the US list. Grindex itself is not sanctioned by the US or EU.

Ukrainian coverage focuses on intelligence and investigative findings connecting named intermediaries, individual machines, downstream manufacturers, and continuing supplies in 2026. The framing emphasizes that equipment used in missile, aviation, and fighter-aircraft production reached sanctioned factories, while Grindex's financial recovery and dependence on exports provide additional context.

أين تختلف الروايات

Journalists could not independently confirm whether Grindex continued working with Finval Energo and Unimatik MSK after those companies were sanctioned. AMG is described both as a Russian intermediary and as one of the purchasers of Grindex equipment.

الخلفية

Grindex was founded in 2003 and is based in Kikinda in northern Serbia. Almost all of its revenue comes from exports. Serbia did not join Western sanctions against Russia and has repeatedly said it will not serve as a platform for sanctions evasion. The country adopted a law in 2025 strengthening controls over exports and imports of dual-use goods. Serbian exports of dual-use goods to Russia increased by 220% in 2022 compared with the pre-war level, and Western partners sanctioned at least 11 Serbian companies for assisting Russia's military-industrial sector during the full-scale war.
