Sanctions on Russia
Sanctions on Russia are economic and political measures imposed by countries like the U.S. and the EU in response to actions such as Russia's invasion of Ukraine. These sanctions restrict trade, freeze assets, and limit financial transactions to pressure Russia to change its behavior. The goal is to deter conflict and promote diplomacy without military intervention. While they aim to weaken Russia's economy and signal global disapproval, sanctions also impact international markets and ordinary citizens, highlighting the complex balance between enforcing international norms and managing economic consequences.
