The largest car manufacturer in Russia – AutoVAZ – has decided to continue cooperation with Rusal irrespective of the sanctions being removed from it or not.
“The main goal of the company for now is to stay with Rusal. Of course, it would be clearer if the company is not controlled by a sanctioned person. But in any case we will find a solution to work with Rusal”, the company said.
At the same time, in late May the company reported on being in search of other aluminum suppliers.
Last year Rusal produced 3.7 million tons of primary aluminum and exported some 80% of it. (Ukrainian metal)
