Baltic countries proposed an EU ban on the import of scrap metal from Russia

The Baltic countries, as well as the Czech Republic, proposed to the EU to ban the import of ferrous metals, copper and aluminum waste and scrap from Russia. Moscow uses the revenue from these imports to finance its war against Ukraine.

According to the Ministry of the Environment of Lithuania, in the period from 2022 to 2023, the EU will import ferrous metals, copper and aluminum waste and scrap from Russia in the amount of more than 118 million euros.

Ukraine has plenty of scrap russian tanks that could be sold.
