Earlier this month the Russian bauxite giant RUSAL, executed its first export in almost a month on account of the hobbling of the company’s operations as a consequence of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, according to shipping data placed in the public domain.
While RUSAL, reportedly, has not been a specific target of the widespread western-imposed sanctions on operations that have a direct bearing on the Russian economy, reports state that the company’s billionaire founder/owner Oleg Deripaska is being personally targeted by the sanctions which continue to seriously undermine Russia’s supply chains.
Shipping data culled from a recent Reuters report indicates that a vessel recently departed Guinea’s port of Kamsar just over a week ago after being loaded by a transshipping vessel that is known to move Russian cargo.
