The current state of affairs with sending parcels from Italy to Russia
The transport blockade by the EU and the USA and the refusal of a number of international postal services to work in the Russian direction significantly worsened the situation. UPS, FedEx, TNT Express, DHL and local state postal services of Poland, Sweden, Latvia, Denmark, Finland and Australia have suspended the shipment of parcels to Russia.
