The United States has used economic sanctions many times to try to achieve foreign policy goals. Sanctions were used extensively on Russia after it invaded Ukraine. How effective were these sanctions and what can we learn from their use going forward? Elizabeth Rosenberg, Assistant Secretary of the Treasury for Terrorist Financing and Financial Crimes in the Biden Administration, played a key role in the sanctions effort and will discuss these issues with Q and A afterwards.
Presented in Spanish with real-time translation to English
