Russia-stravaganza! | EMBARGOED! Episode 42

Brian and Tim kick off 2022 by diving deep on Russia and the crisis brewing at Ukraine's border. They discuss the "punishing" sanctions that could be coming if Russia invades Ukraine, Nord Stream 2 (of course), and what companies should be doing right now to prepare for the worst and mitigate risk. In the Lightning Round, Brian and Tim share quick thoughts on the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act, new Commerce Department appointments, and OFAC's recent enforcement action against Airbnb Payments. ******** Questions?
