It is possible that Chinese manufacturers of automotive spare parts will stop supplying parts to Russia. This opinion was expressed by AvtoVAZ Vice President for External Relations and Interaction with Shareholders Sergey Gromak on the sidelines of the Innoprom exhibition in Yekaterinburg.
A number of Chinese component manufacturers are seriously afraid of secondary sanctions. We are seeing problems with payments for components.
According to the top manager of the auto giant, it is necessary to cooperate with Russian component manufacturers.
There is practically no one to work with
If Chinese partners really do what Gromak says, then AvtoVAZ will also have serious problems. The fact is that LADA cars use about 4,500 different auto components, but more than 1,500 of them are imported from abroad, because there are simply no Russian analogues.
