This podcast, Sanctions Strategy and Effectiveness: Influencing Russia’s Foreign Policy, explores the use of sanctions policy in international relations and examines the impact and effectiveness of sanctions.
As a case study in sanctions strategy, the European Union along with other actors, such as Canada and the US, imposed sanctions upon Russia as a response to the Russian military intervention in Crimea and Eastern Ukraine in late February 2014.
A copy of the transcript is available here to accompany watching the podcast.
