The additions were published on June 12 by the US Treasury and State Department, this is reported by the railway transport news portal Railway Supply.

The updated US sanctions lists

Sinara – Transport Machines (STM), which produces a wide range of rolling stock, was included in the list by the US Treasury Department.

In turn, “Uralvagonzavod” has been on various sanctions lists since 2014, but the US Treasury added it to its list now.

UVZ is one of the largest manufacturers of freight cars in Russia, but the company’s main products are armored vehicles.

The US Treasury also added “Russian Electric Motors” and the Yekaterinburg NPO “Horizon” to the list.

Since 2023, “Transmashholding” and its plant “Metrovagonmash” have been on the US sanctions lists – the manufacturer stated that it would challenge these decisions.

Also included are several other manufacturers of railway transport products: “Uraltransmash,” Tikhoretsky Machine-Building Plant, “Tvema,” EPK, and others.
