Moldova has suspended the activity of three companies -- Airrock Solutions, Aerostage Services, and Maxjet Service -- that had brokered airplane-parts sales to Russia. The decision was made during an August 7 meeting of the Council for the Promotion of Investment Projects, headed by Prime Minister Dorin Recean. In February, an investigation by RFE/RL's Moldovan Service found that the three companies had brokered airplane-parts sales worth more than $15 million to Russian firms in 2022-23. The sales did not violate Moldovan law but were made after Brussels adopted sanctions against Russia over its invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.
