The US government has announced a new package of sanctions against Russia, blacklisting nearly 300 individuals and companies. Among them is Russia's largest low-cost airline, Pobeda, according to releases from the US State Department and Treasury. Established in 2014 and 100% owned by Aeroflot, Pobeda violated aviation sanctions that prohibit the supply of components and spare parts for airliners to Russia, the State Department explains. The company continues to fly American and European-made aircraft, and last year purchased and transported $1 million worth of sanctioned parts, the department notes. In addition, the State Department emphasizes, in January 2024, Pobeda participated in the transportation of aircraft parts from India with the help of Iranian Mahan Air.
