Samson: American companies want to return to Russia from the window
30th August, 2022
The Yeni Safak newspaper, which is close to Turkish business circles, reported that American companies that left Russia due to the situation in Ukraine are looking for a way to secretly return to the Russian market through Turkey.
The newspaper said: "Many American companies want to circumvent the sanctions imposed by the West on Russia, and in doing so they offer some Turkish companies the implementation of the common business in return for a certain commission."
The newspaper quoted Turkish businessmen as saying that the number of these offers from American companies has increased in recent months.” The newspaper asserts that American companies operate along the road between Russia, Turkey, Dubai and the United States, and through it buy goods from Russia.
The article said: “Many international companies headquartered in the United States, using their subsidiaries located in Dubai free zones, to carry out this business. American companies that make such joint business offers to Turkish companies, resort to this method to cover their losses in Russian market. LINK
