- The United States: Sanctions Implementer and Sanctions Safe Haven?
The article examines how US sanctions programs, particularly Global Magnitsky sanctions targeting Russian oligarchs, effectively disrupt corruption networks by freezing assets and limiting financial access in democratic countries. However, the author argues these sanctions provide only temporary solutions, comparable to a game of whack-a-mole, and are not sufficient without comprehensive policy reforms to close loopholes in financial systems that enable wealth laundering.
