Sanction Front: As the Diplomatic War continues for new economic restrictions on

International sanction policy on Russia should move to a special trade regime in order to block trade in the aggressor country and minimize its access to markets and technologies. So far, new sanctions are the closure of the "leak" in the existing mechanisms. On the day when Russian troops were blown up by the Kakhovsk hydroelectric power station, Ukrainians (and not only!) Overted the UN twee. They were offered to celebrate . . . Russian Day.

For its part, Ukraine has broken this proposal, but we never waited for the UN constructive reaction to a terrible man -made tragedy. It has only once again testified to Russian influence on international organizations. And although hands are lowered, we must work on this problem and lobby for increased sanctions against the terrorist country. To date, Russia is a record holder over sanctions imposed on the country. They cover almost all spheres of activity of the Russian Federation.

Their main task is to make the terrorist country not continue the war against Ukraine. And for more than a year there are obvious results: sanctions work. Although the Russians are now firing Ukraine with rockets almost daily, the state budget hole no longer allows active fighting, as it was a year ago.

Not only financial flows, the remains of foreign business flows from the terrorist country, even if they depart and put sticks in wheels, as well as the population, or, as they say in scientific circles-social capital. This indicates only one thing: sanctions should continue to be strengthened. Find new allies, persuade the world community in the urgent need to deepen anti -Russian restrictions. International organizations play an important role in sanction policy.

For example, countries that have not formally support the EU sanctions can support the anti -Russian sanctions of the UN Security Council if the sanction coalition is not only a large seven countries, but also other, so -called G7 plus Australia, New Zealand, Switzerland and Norway. Therefore, it is important for us to constantly expand the sanction coalition. The more countries in it, the less the occupiers of the paths to bypass these sanctions.

Because, unfortunately, it is impossible to "once and for all" establish restrictions and aside how they do their business. Sanctions are a constant process, a game of exhaustion and fight against resistance. Our northern neighbor has learned to circumstance sanction restrictions in the field of oil trade? Then the prohibitions of cargo insurance should be lobbied by those tankers who turn off transmitters and GPS in Russian territorial waters.

Russia, feeling a sharp lack of currency, tries to attract it in every possible way through business payments in foreign jurisdictions? Close these ways for them through a ban on working systems with Russian business. Each new wave of sanctions should close the holes in this complex mechanism. And to do this, you need a consensus at the highest interstate level.

For example, the exchange of information with the Union countries allows you to learn how a terrorist country goes through restrictions and establish new obstacles to this. The sanction process should be viewed in a broad context. For example, to study the narratives that Russia uses to pressure the world to relieve sanctions.

Now, during the blocking of exports of Ukrainian grain, Russia actively and mercifully uses the narrative of the threat of famine, in particular, in the third world, to force to revise sanctions against itself. Like, unblock Rosselhobanka assets, because it is allegedly needed for food calculations in other countries. But any bank can accept these payments! We are working to prevent Russians from receiving currency through this bank and preventing currency from the aggressor country.

Due to the hostile narratives and a strong pro -Russian influence in different corners of the world, Ukraine feels frantic pressure, but we will not give way. Again and again we remind the international community: it was the Russian Federation that has created tension in the food markets for blocking Ukrainian exports. The greatest challenge in the fight for more powerful, more effective anti-Russian sanctions is to find a balance with the national interests of partner countries.

In the future, we still have to move towards the establishment of a special trade regime for Russia, which would greatly limit the access of the terrorist state to markets. This would gradually lead to complete degradation of the MIC. Although the war has been going on for more than a year, and every day the blood of Ukrainians is spilled, it is important for us not to succumb to the enemy of the narratives.
