Resolution No. 851 (11 May 2022) is the instrument Russia uses to impose "special economic measures" — an entity-listing regime distinct from its Western-sanctions counter-measures (import substitution, parallel imports) — targeting foreign companies deemed engaged in hostile "military-technical cooperation." Resolution No. 969 amends the Annex to add Daimler Truck AG (Даймлер Трак АГ, Germany) as list item No. 33.
Once listed, an entity becomes subject to a prohibition on commercial transactions, a ban on exports to it, and a prohibition on dealings in investment instruments (equities/securities) involving it — GTA tracks the export ban and the commercial-transactions/investment-instruments prohibition as two separate interventions (146414, and a companion record) stemming from the same primary decree.
Daimler Truck held a residual stake in KamAZ (Russia's largest truck manufacturer) dating to a 2008 strategic partnership; it sold its final ~15% holding in early 2024, completing its exit from the Russian market. The June 2025 listing therefore has limited practical bite — it forecloses any future re-entry or investment-instrument dealing rather than interrupting an active commercial relationship.
