The world’s largest drone manufacturer, DJI, has announced that it will temporarily suspend its equipment sales in both Russia and Ukraine “due to hostile activity”. News about the topic Reuters.

The DJI’s decision is significant, as it is the first major Chinese company to stop selling in Russia since the country launched an offensive war on Ukraine in February. Unlike many Western companies, most Chinese companies have continued to operate in the country.

Regarding DJI’s communications, Reuters was told that no statements would be made about the company in connection with the withdrawal, but the company still revealed some of its principles:

– DJI hates the use of our drones to cause harm, and we will temporarily suspend sales in these countries to ensure no one uses drones in battles.

Ukrainian politician Mykhailo Fedorov thus instructed DJI to stop selling its products in Russia for a month. Fedorov posted a petition on Twitter saying Russia used drones to navigate missiles to “kill civilians”.
