Russia is the most sanctioned country in the world. The Ukraine war
might have left her internationally isolated and starved of
resources – but Putin and his oligarch court are adept at
avoiding financial restrictions, cutting side deals that enable
them to fund the war and protect their power. Are the West’s
sanctions working? How can we tighten them? Is there really any
difference between sanctions evasion and international criminal
money laundering? And who are Putin’s true allies? Gavin Esler
finds out from Maria Shagina – Senior Research Fellow for
Economic Sanctions, Standards and Strategy at the International
Institute for Strategic Studies – and Ian Garner of Poland’s
Pilecki Institute, author of Z Generation: Into the Heart of
Russia’s Fascist Youth. • Support This Is Not Drill on Patreon
