🤔 Did you know that there are over 30 autonomous sanction regimes worldwide imposed by the European Union and sanctions transposed by the UN?
✈️ These sanctions are in response to major global crises, including situations in Syria, Iran, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Venezuela, Libya, Russia, Ukraine, and North Korea.
🔍 The European Union has also introduced general regimes aimed at combating terrorism, cyber-attacks, the proliferation of weapons, and the use of chemical weapons. 🛡️ Detailed information about the restrictive measures (sanctions) in force in the EU can be found on the EU Sanctions Map website: https://www.sanctionsmap.eu/#/main 🌐
On this website, you can find both detailed restrictive measures applied to certain entities (such as asset freezes 💰 and prohibitions on making funds available) and general restrictions (e.g., monitoring money transfers 💸 or bans on engaging in specific financial market activities) in various sanction regimes.
