Frozen: The politics and economics of sanctions against Russia

Sanctions will remain one of the main Western tools for pressing Moscow to stop intervening in Ukraine. Whether or not the West decides to support Ukraine militarily, sanctions need to be made as effective as possible. If the conflict in Ukraine continues, the West should unite to impose much tougher sanctions on Russia. There should be clear, agreed criteria for Russia to meet before sanctions will be lifted. Top of the list should be restoring Ukrainian control over its border and preventing the flow of Russian arms and personnel into eastern Ukraine
