Japan imposes export sanctions against two companies from Uzbekistan

In addition, 19 Russian citizens and 43 legal entities were included in the “black lists” with their assets frozen. Japan also announced a ban on the supply of diamonds from the Russian Federation, with the exception of industrial ones.

According to the USRPO, both companies were created in Tashkent with a difference of four years and have a common legal address. The founder of both companies is Oleg Grabilin, who also holds the post of head of Alfa Beta Creative, registered in 2022.

The company GFK Logistic Asia was registered in March 2018 and has an authorized capital of 200 million soums. Yulia Klyuchinskaya is listed as its leader.

In April, both companies came under US sanctions for purchasing goods for the Russian defense industry in circumvention of sanctions. Two months later, the European Union also imposed export restrictions on them.
