Kazakhstan banned the export to Russia of 106 types of goods that can be used for military purposes. In particular, technological ones — drones, microelectronics, etc.
This was reported by the head of the Presidentʼs Office Andriy Yermak.
These are goods that were not produced in Kazakhstan. The enemy tried to obtain Western components through re-export.
"The specified 106 items of goods are not produced in Kazakhstan, but were previously re-exported through Kazakhstan [before Russiaʼs full-scale war with Ukraine]. Imports to Kazakhstan are carried out, but exports are not. They [are produced] not only in the West, but also in other countries," explained Vice Minister of Trade and Integration Kairat Torebayev to the journalists of the KazTAG publication.
