Since Russia invaded Ukraine in February 2022, sanctions have been one means for the west to challenge Russia. How effective have these sanctions been in hindering Russia’s war efforts? How do these sanctions compare with others enacted against Iran, Myamar, and Venezuela? What collateral damage has occurred through their implementation and how might sanctions be used in the future more effectively?

This presentation is part of the Great Decisions Global Discussions series. Great Decisions is America’s largest discussion program on world affairs. The program provides background information and policy options for the eight most critical issues facing America each year and serves as the starting place for dialogue and discussion within the community. These topics are selected by the Foreign Policy Association (FPA) each year and the World Affairs Council of Western Michigan develops a discussion series that complements the FPA.

It is our longest-running and largest community program on global issues. For more information about the World Affairs Council of Western Michigan visit: https://www.worldmichigan.org/about
