Q4 2016 Sanctions Round-Up
On January 31, 2017, we published our quarterly Sanctions Round Up focusing on developments in US economic sanctions laws and enforcement in the fourth quarter of 2016, as well as in connection with the new Trump Administration. The main
developments included:
- President Donald J. Trump's inauguration and its implications for US sanctions policy, especially related to Iran and Russia;
- termination of Burma-related sanctions;
- President Obama and Europe's continued support for Russian sanctions; and
- US authorities continue to enforce sanctions through settlements for violations of Iranian and Cuban sanctions.
