I mean, the lead time on this stuff is long. They’re not just going to suddenly cancel a bunch of contracts that they’ve agreed to – that would be commercial suicide.
And this statement seems utterly clear and perfectly in line with what they did:
> After the invasion Bamford said, via lawyers, that he fully supported the UK government’s position on Russia. JCB’s lawyers said the company took “voluntary steps to pause the manufacture and supply of **new orders** to Russia from 2 March 2022”
None story. They fulfilled existing contractual obligations and stopped any further exchanges after the Invasion
i don’t see the issue in selling Russia some diggers, and I despise putin.
I don’t despise Russia or Russians tho, great country, great people. One huge balding cunt as a leader.
may a Ukrainian drone (fill in the blank) him
