What is the source of this claim? I don't see it in NYT paper.

It was sold in 2019, long before sanctions on titanium exports.

The claim is "we don't know", with Russia only being mentioned as a direct counterpoint to someone assuming it isn't Russian titanium.


Good point on the timing. But I didn’t make a claim, I said “for all we know”. We don’t know the real source, but yes drop the sanction example since it does predate current sanctions.
