The Effect of Western Sanctions: A View from Ukraine

Guests must register via Zoom in order to receive the webinar info.

Since Russia invaded Ukraine on February 24, Western governments have adopted several packages of economic sanctions in an attempt to diminish the resources available to the Russian (and Belarusian) regimes.  But the question of whether the sanctions are producing the intended results – in terms of economic isolation, political opposition, social instability – remains to be seen. The Ukrainian Institute of the Future, a leading Ukrainian think tank, will analyze the measure that have taken to date and whether other so-called “neutral” nations can be persuaded to join the list of countries imposing sanctions on Russia.
