Germany has stopped the planned export of a modern battle simulation facility that was destined for the Russian army.
German Economy Minister Siegmar Gabriel ordered to stop the delivery.
In a statement to German News Agency DPA, German company Rheinmetall said, "The German government considers the export of the combat training center to Russia unjustifiable in the current situation. The federal government is in contact with the firm while no shipments are planned at the moment. The firm will inform the federal government in time if exports are to be made, so that the government can take the required steps if necessary in the light of further developments."
Rheinmetall had signed the agreement to supply the Russian army with the facility worth 120 million euros in 2011. It was supposed to be installed in the Russian city of Mulino by the end of this year where 30,000 troops could have been trained a year.
