Australia will not supply raw materials for aluminum to Russia

Australia imposed a ban on the export of raw materials for aluminum production to Russia.

This was announced by the Australian government.

“The Australian Government is immediately imposing a ban on the export of alumina and aluminum ores, including bauxite, to Russia,” the statement said.

The sanction is aimed at limiting the opportunities for Russian aluminum producers. It, in turn, is an important part of Russian exports.

“The Australian Government will work closely with exporters and government agencies affected by the ban to find new and expand existing markets,” the document says.
