KONTAN.CO.ID - MILAN. Carmaker Stellantis said on Tuesday, it was suspending production at its Russian plant due to logistical difficulties and sanctions imposed on Moscow. The world's fourth-largest automaker which produced and sold the Peugeot, Citroёn, Opel, Jeep and Fiat brands in Russia, has just 1% of the country's car market.

It runs a van-making plant in Kaluga, around 125 miles (201 kilometres) south-east of Moscow, co-owned with Japanese carmaker Mitsubishi. The companies halted production at the facility earlier this month.
