Export customers of Russian equipment are deferring payments, President Vladimir Putin said at a meeting with workers at the Obukhov plant, which is part of the Almaz-Antey concern.
“Some of our foreign customers, unfortunately, do not fulfill their obligations in full. We received products, but they are not paying,” Putin was quoted as saying Russian state media.
The President has promised to support domestic defense industry enterprises. He said in the current situation, the foreign market has faded into the background.
