Acer supplies computer equipment to Russia – Reuters

A Taiwanese company has shipped computer equipment to Russia after announcing a suspension of business in the country.

Taiwanese manufacturer Acer has supplied computer equipment to Russia, despite reports of suspending business in the country. Reuters reported this on June 9, citing customs data.

It was noted that for the period from April 8, 2022 to March 31, 2023, goods were delivered at least 70.4 million US dollars.

“Although Acer’s actions are not illegal, they differ from the behavior of major Western competitors such as Dell and HP, which stopped deliveries to the Russian Federation in February and April 2022,” the material said .

Equipment manufactured by Acer arrives in Russia both through a subsidiary registered in Switzerland and through several delivery services commissioned by this “son”.

Because the shipments came from outside Taiwan, they did not violate Taipei’s sanctions against Russia. They also did not cover items whose exports were restricted by Swiss and EU sanctions.

However, as the agency recalled, on April 8 last year, Acer announced that it had suspended business in the Russian Federation.

The office of Acer Sales International SA in Taiwan responded that it “strictly complies with international regulations and trade laws for export to Russia.” It added that the Swiss subsidiary “has not delivered any laptops or desktops to Russia since April 8 last year,” while “a limited number of displays and accessories for everyday civilian use” are delivered to Russia “in compliance with international sanctions.”

Acer did not say why it continued to ship goods to Russia.

An anonymous source told Reuters that Acer products, including PC monitors and laptops, will continue to ship to Russia after April 2022.

The agency did not determine where some of the Acer products still found for sale in Russia came from or when they arrived in the country. Swiss and EU sanctions allowed the export of portable computers and computer components to the Russian Federation until December 16, 2022. After this date, there will be no shipments of banned Acer products from Switzerland.

The company emphasized that it is possible that Russian importers buy Acer devices in third countries.

“The shipments underscore that, despite international sanctions aimed at restricting Russians’ access to technology and equipment, foreign-made goods remain available to Russian consumers,” concluded the Reuters.

It was previously reported that last year, spare parts for Boeing, Airbus and other aircraft manufacturers arrived in Russia avoiding sanctions.
