Uss, who was detained in Milan, was charged in relation to a scheme to unlawfully obtain U.S. military technology and sanctioned Venezuelan oil in order to support Russia’s war effort in Ukraine, according to charges unsealed by the U.S. Department of Justice this week.
“We are categorically against this and we condemn the practice of these kinds of arrests of Russian citizens,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said.
Uss’ father, the governor of Russia’s Krasnoyarsk Krai region, Alexander Uss, has suggested the arrest is politically motivated, according to TASS.
Another Russian government spokesperson, Maria Zakharova, said Moscow would not leave the United States’ search for Russians “unanswered” and accused the U.S. of “taking hostages for political purposes,” TASS reported.
Uss wasn’t the only one charged in the money laundering and smuggling scheme. Uss co-owned a trading company called Nord-Deutsche Industrieanlagenbau GmbH (NDA GmbH) which he and co-conspirators allegedly used as a front to ship U.S. defense technology to Russia.
Uss and co-conspirators are accused of using NDA GmbH to ship advanced semiconductors and microprocessors for fighter aircraft, missile systems, smart munitions, radar, and satellites to Russia—some have been found in weapons used in the war in Ukraine.
“Some of the same electronic components obtained through the criminal scheme have been found in Russian weapons platforms seized on the battlefield in Ukraine,” the Department of Justice said in an announcement,

I see a trade for the female basketball player in the near future!! Can’t remember her name and frankly I wish she would stay there until she learns to appreciate America!!
Exactly my thoughts. I had hope that Grinner (sp?) would be there until she (it?) was old. Hates America dontchya know
You’re probably right. I say they can keep her.
Some how I do not think that is going to happen this time.
Hopefully Ukraine sees the value of this guy and makes a huge fuss over trading him for lurch.
We have met the enemy and he is Uss.
Keep poking the bear.
Yep.
So much happening and we are not being told.
Funny these days lately, I feel like we are cut off from world events, living in a bubble of make believe.
Censorship does that I guess.
the old tired Bear should stop poking the Eagle, or the Eagle will clean his clock for good
(actually this is good news, because it confirms what we always suspected ... Russia is running out of vital high-tech components, like computer chips, that it needs for its missiles)
How is the Bear poking the Eagle here?
Last I checked, we're not at war with Russia as much as Biden and neocons want to make it seem this way.
I’m pretty sick of the eagle sticking his beak where it doesn’t belong. The war mongers need to stop with the vintage 20th century worldview. Give it up. Probably being run by a bunch of boomers with PTSD from fallout shelter days when the USSR (which no longer exists) was a real threat.
But no, the military industrial complex, and the regime topplers in the CIA, can’t have that.
No, they're not.
The tranny dyke should be in a men’s prison.
It is necessary to kiss Black Ass on a global scale now a days
yes they are
Ukraine is only the first step
read up on Hitler and Nazi Germany ... same template
if Russia wanted to take over Europe the only conceivable option would be to turn the continent to glass. And if that’s true then they would have done it already.
Russia doesn’t have the people or talent to do a conventional campaign through europe such as what they’re trying to do in ukraine.
But sure, believe whatever you want. Keep supporting all the globalist scum cheerleaders of our latest proxy war.
I’m done with it. Don’t care about filthy Ukies or filthy Russians.
Looks like you accidentally reversed the “scum”. The scum invaded Ukraine. Period.
When are the Hunter Biden charges coming?
