E98: Which economies are winning from sanctions on Russia?

The ongoing invasion of Ukraine has been a catastrophic ordeal for the country and its citizens – as well as the financial consequences for all those impacted by the Western sanctions.


But, this has also presented a huge opportunity for nations and white-collar professionals willing to grease the wheels and help Russia evade sanctions in return for cash money!


Our expert host, Robin Lycka, is joined by Erica Marat, Professor at the College of International Security Affairs, to discuss: which economies are booming due to Western sanctions on Russia?


The pair discuss: how sanctions evasion is happening right now, the appeal for nations taking part, and what can be done to tackle this issue.


Producer: Matthew Dunne-Miles

Editor: Dominic Delargy

Engineer: Nicholas Thon
