Siemens

A German court in Hamburg has opened a case against two former Siemens executives accused of violating sanctions by exporting the company’s gas turbines to occupied Crimea.

Siemens employees were accused of supplying gas turbines to Crimea, despite the embargo imposed after the occupation of the peninsula by Russia in 2014.

Germany’s Siemens Energy offered the government of Ukraine to place its floating power plants in the water areas near Odesa, Mykolaiv and Izmail.
