EU Sanctions in the framework of the Common Foreign and Security Policy
The example of Ukraine
Join us for a fascinating presentation exploring how the European Union imposes sanctions (“restrictive measures”) on third countries, legal entities and individuals within the framework of the Common Foreign and Security Policy. The lecture traces the gradual expansion of these measures during the war in Ukraine, focusing on the EU’s efforts to strengthen their effectiveness in support of European strategic autonomy, security and values. It also highlights the rigorous judicial review exercised by the Court of Justice of the European Union, illustrated through selected case studies that reveal the challenges such measures present.
