The European Union has added 19 Chinese companies to its existing sanctions list as part of a new package of measures against Russia. These include two important players in the Chinese satellite industry. According to news agency reports, the two companies, Chang Guang Satellite Technology (CGST) and Beijing Yunze Technology, allegedly sold satellites worth millions to the Russian mercenary group Wagner. Another of the newly sanctioned companies from China is Head Aerospace Technology. The company is said to have supplied the Wagner Group with satellite images of Ukrainian locations. It is also sanctioned by the United States.
