The ILI team has prepared an analytical paper on how asset confiscation and fines can contribute to Ukraine`s recovery

Violated sanctions? Then finance Ukraine’s recovery.

The Institute of Legislative Ideas presents the policy brief The Compensatory Function of Sanctions, now available on the Sanctions on Russia platform.

Sanctions should deliver not only a political signal, but also a tangible outcome. Those who caused harm – or helped it occur by circumventing sanctions – must pay through asset confiscation and fines, rather than getting away with it.

The publication was prepared in cooperation with the platform developed by the Stockholm Institute of Transition Economics.
