Moscow. June 1. INTERFAX-The contract for the supply of 11 Su-35 fighters to Indonesia is still in force, Dmitry Shugaev, head of the Federal Service for Military-Technical Cooperation (FSMTC) of the Russian Federation, told Interfax.

"It is not broken," Shugaev said, answering the agency's question about the status of the contract.

Earlier, Bloomberg, citing an informed anonymous source, reported that Indonesia, under pressure from the United States, refused to purchase 11 Su-35 fighters from Russia for $1.1 billion.

Bloomberg notes that the decision to abandon the deal was made by the Indonesian authorities after American officials made it clear that they could impose sanctions for the contract with Russia. Instead, the US suggested that Indonesia consider buying F-16 fighter jets, but Indonesia said it was more interested in negotiating the purchase of more modern F-35s.

Russia and Indonesia signed a contract for the supply of 11 Su-35 fighter jets in February 2018-six months after the United States passed the law "On countering America's Adversaries through Sanctions" (CAATSA). The law, in particular, provides for sanctions against customers of products of Russian defense enterprises.
