It shows the Kremlin’s success in bypassing international sanctions, as the Ukrainian analysis of the Kh-101 missile revealed 16 units of Western-made electronics, the Financial Times article emphasizes.

According to Russian documents analysed by the FT, terrorist state’s companies in 2023 were able to obtain these components by simply buying on the open market and importing them through China.

Specialists from the Kyiv Scientific Research Institute of Forensic Expertise have identified more than 30 pieces and fragments to determine the name and characteristics of the missile, Deputy Minister of Justice Andriy Haichenko announced.

The head of the President’s Office, Andriy Yermak also reported that the Russian Kh-101 missile contains dozens of components and microelectronics produced in the North Atlantic Alliance countries:
