The National Revenue Administration (Krajowa Administracja Skarbowa, KAS) of Poland announced the imposition of sanctions against TST PL sp. z. o.o., a company registered in Biala Podlaska and its beneficial owner Armen Seryozhaevich Harutyunyan (Арутюнян Армен Серёжаевич), an Armenian citizen.
According to Polish authorities, Harutyunyans company participated in circumventing sanctions imposed on Grodno Azot, a Belarusian fertilizer producer.
KAS found that Harutyunyan was associated with Belarusian companies Technospecstrading and Technospecextorting and World Kemen Trading Co., all of which were added to Polands sanctions list in 2024. From 2013 to 205, Tst PL imported carbamide from Technospecting LLC, most of it coming from a single supplier.
Grodno Azot is a Belarusian company that produces nitrogen compounds. It owns the Khimvolokno plant, which is a major manufacturer of polyamide, polyester, and composite materials. In 2021, the EU imposed financial sanctions on both Grodno Azot and Khimvolokno for supporting President Alexander Lukashenko.
