A Conversation with Julia Friedlander About Western Sanctions on Russia - April 01, 2022

Russia's unprovoked invasion of Ukraine triggered a wave of severe sanctions against Russian banks, businesses, and oligarchs by the western alliance. These sanctions have been far reaching and intended to punish the Kremlin and restrict funding and resources used to support Russian aggression. Host Carol Castiel sits down with Julia Friedlander, a former senior policy advisor for Europe in the Office of Terrorism and Financial Intelligence in the Treasury Department, now Senior Fellow and Director of the Economic Statecraft Initiative at the Atlantic Council, to discuss the scope and impact of these sanctions.
