The first major Chinese company to suspend operations in Russia and Ukraine

DJI became the first Chinese company to suspend operations in the Russian market since Moscow launched a special military operation in Ukraine. At the beginning of the conflict, DJI was accused by many Ukrainian officials and people of leaking data about the country’s military to the Russian side. The company immediately denied the allegation.
DJI is headquartered in Shenzhen, China. Founded in 2006, after 16 years of development, this company has gradually established itself as a “giant” in the world UAV industry. Although DJI’s financial information is not public, research organization Drone Analyst estimates revenue from the sale of the company’s hardware to have reached $ 2.9 billion in 2020.
