DJI stated today (February 24th) that this move aims to protect DJIs legitimate rights and interests, as well as the interests of American consumers and agricultural users who rely on DJI products but are affected by the ban. In its complaint, DJI stated that the FCCs decision has serious procedural and substantive flaws. The FCC placed DJI on the "Controlled List" without providing any substantial evidence that DJI products pose a threat to U.S. national security, which not only violates due process principles but also potentially violates the U.S. Constitution and relevant federal laws.On February 24th, the British Foreign Office issued a statement imposing sanctions on 175 entities within the "2Rivers" network on the fourth anniversary of the outbreak of the Russia-Ukraine conflict. The action also targets Transneft, one of the worlds largest oil pipeline companies, which the UK claims handles over 80% of Russias oil exports. The British Foreign Secretary stated that the UKs decisive action today cuts off key funding, military equipment, and revenue sources supporting Russias aggression, representing the largest sanctions measure since the early stages of the Russia-Ukraine conflict. The "2Rivers" network, linked to Azerbaijani traders Aitibar Eyub and Tahir Garayev, continued to transport hundreds of millions of barrels of Russian crude oil despite international sanctions imposed due to the conflict. This offshore network, formerly known as "Coral," expanded rapidly before EU and UK sanctions weakened its operations in 2024. At the time, Garayevs lawyer denied any connection to Transneft or Eyub, stating that he had not been involved in any oil-related business since the end of 2022.
