According to Russian website Topwar citing Bloomberg's source, EU expressed concern about the sharp increase in household appliances exported to Russia by third countries, especially Kazakhstan and Armenia . Brussels is concerned that Russia may use electronic products to produce military equipment.
The report said that since the start of the special military operation, Kazakhstan and Armenia have increased sharply the supply of household appliances from the EU, rather, washing machines, refrigerators and even breast pumps. The equipment was subsequently shipped to Russia, and delivery volumes also increased dramatically. Some European officials worry that the microchip of Russian refrigerators and washing machines will be used to make military equipment and then used in Ukraine. Bloomberg reports that some European officials have seen parts of refrigerators and washing machines in Russian tanks hit in Ukraine. But no evidence was provided in this regard.
Topwar reminds that this accusation against Russia will never be the first time, nor even the last time. In May this year, the Kiev regime accused the Russian army of allegedly stealing household appliances in the "occupied territory". It is said that Ukrainian dishwashers and washing machines are exported to Russia in large quantities, from which microchips are extracted, and further used in Russia's missile and drone . On Ukrainian TV, many "experts" have appeared, claiming they have seen these microchips in the tanks they were hit, and so on.
Through related reports, it can be seen that the author of the article was obviously angry when citing Bloomberg's reports. The article said that this crazy nonsense is now "popular" in the United States. US Secretary of Commerce Gina Raymondou even seriously accused Russia of dismantling washing machines and dishwashers in Ukraine due to sanctions on electronic products. When she said this, she also mentioned the "authoritative Ukrainian expert".
"As history will repeat itself, the second round accused Russia of using household appliances for military purposes. This time only the dishwasher replaces the refrigerator. The third round, which may involve the field of television," the author finally wrote.
