The EU has begun discussions on a new package of sanctions against Russia, which could significantly affect the IT sector.
At first glance, the ban on the export of smartphones fromEU countries will not in any way affect the supplies of Chinese vendors, but the experience of Huawei and its American adventures suggests that “the devil is in the details” and much will depend on whether secondary sanctions will be provided for third parties (the document also contains such proposals). Meanwhile, these initiatives are just proposals, and the new package of sanctions is yet to be considered by EU officials, so it is not a fact that such radical measures will ultimately be taken.
