Prosecutor General Ruslan Kravchenko has highlighted the critical importance of international cooperation to prevent the supply of components to Russia for weapon production, labeling it a significant global challenge. During a recent address, Kravchenko emphasized that the US Department of Justice and Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) are prioritizing efforts to combat cyberterrorism, provide legal assistance across borders, and block the flow of various components essential for Russian military production.
Kravchenko outlined three key priorities for the agencies’ work: (1) strengthening international collaboration against cyberterrorism, which has become an escalating threat in global conflicts; (2) enhancing legal assistance frameworks to facilitate cross-border investigations and prosecutions; and (3) intensifying measures to prevent the supply of critical components to Russia, which the aggressor nation uses to manufacture weapons. This includes both physical components and digital tools that support its military-industrial complex.
The prosecutor general stressed that these efforts require a coordinated global approach, involving not only US agencies but also international partners. He called for increased intelligence sharing, legal harmonization, and technological measures to intercept the movement of materials that could be used in Russia’s military programs. As tensions remain high, Kravchenko’s remarks underscore the complex and multifaceted nature of the challenge in countering Russian aggression through supply chain restrictions.
