According to Xiaomi official news and related media reports, on April 13, local time, the Ukrainian State Anti -Corruption Agency released news on its official website and Twitter that Xiaomi has included Xiaomi company on the "Russian War International Sponsor List".
The news release of the Ukrainian National Anti -Corruption Bureau shows that the reason why Xiaomi is included in the international sponsors of the war is that the company not only continued to operate in Russia after Russia's "comprehensive invasion", but also the "terrorist country"Leading brand of smartphone sales.
The Ukrainian State Anti -Corruption Bureau said that from the data in the third quarter of 2022, compared with the previous quarter, Xiaomi's supply to Russia increased by 39%.
Since 2018, Xiaomi ranks first in the sales of Russia's online store, and has a huge offline authorized retail network in Russia.Therefore, in 2022, Xiaomi doubled its share in the Russian market and became the country's smartphone sales leading brand.By July 2022, Xiaomi and its sub -brand POCO accounted for 42%of the Russian smartphone market, ranking first in sales.
According to official data, in 2021, the income of Xiaomi Russian Branch reached US $ 202 million (S $ 269 million).This is a huge amount of funds that needs to pay a lot of taxes.The Ukrainian State Anti -Corruption Bureau claimed that these taxes were used to support the Russian army and "launched a war against Ukraine."
Ukrainian officials, therefore believed that Xiaomi sponsored the military aggression of terrorist countries and would undertake the reputation and legal consequences of its behavior.At present, the Ukrainian State Anti -Corruption Agency has included 21 companies on the list of international sponsors of the war.
In response to Ukraine's sanctions such as sponsoring the blacklist of the war, Xiaomi Group issued a statement saying "strong opposition."
Xiaomi said in a statement, "Xiaomi is a global company established in Beijing. We provide high -quality civil smartphones and household appliances for global consumers. We firmThe rights of tools and online messages. We carry out consumer business in more than 100 countries and regions around the world, and strictly abide by the laws and regulations of the place where they are located. "
"We strongly oppose the Corruption Bureau of the Ukrainian State Putting Xiaomi into the list of 'International Sponsors of War'. We hope that the world is peaceful and never supports war. Our mission is to be a good product that is moving and kind.Everyone in the world can enjoy the beautiful life brought by technology. "
The author believes that Xiaomi is not a arms company, and its products cannot be used in the battlefield environment. It is a company that is a businessman. It is a normal business to kill Russia to seize the market while the war.Behavior, it has nothing to do with supporting war, and Xiaomi does not have the willingness and ability to support the war.
Ukraine has created taxes on the grounds of Russia in Russia to invest in Russia to include a Chinese company on the list of supporting war.The influence is bound to affect China's relative neutral attitude towards war on war.
For countries that are struggling to struggle on the battlefield and seeking in all aspects, there are still seeking in China (at least I hope that China does not intervene in supporting Russia), this is definitely a mixed move, and Zerrenzki may be a bit faint.Top!
