Meeting the Challenge of Secondary Sanctions

The second episode of ECFR's summer series on strategic sovereignty explores the critical challenge that secondary sanctions pose for Europe, due to the Trump administration's maximalist position on Iran. Joining Mark Leonard for a lively discussion of economic statecraft are Ellie Geranmayeh, a senior policy fellow at ECFR, Henry Farrell, a professor of political science and international affairs at George Washington University and Elizabeth Rosenberg, a senior fellow at the Center for a New American Security. They discuss how Europe could reduce its vulnerabilities to U.S. secondary sanctions, which — in the future — could target countries that are more important to the European economy, such as China and Russia.This podcast was recorded on Tuesday, 23 July 2019.Photo: Trump announces his decision not to certify under the Iran Nuclear Agreement Act, October 13, 2017.
