One document marked with the seal of the US Bureau of Industry and Security said that in 2022, Armenia imported 515 percent more chips and processors from the United States and 212 percent more from the European Union than in 2021.
“Armenia then exported 97 percent of those same products to Russia, the document said,” the report noted.
