You can also read FMedunic's commentary on the way to measure European sanctions' against Russia. He states that now is the time for a full assessment of how well they have worked. ECFR European Power ecfr.eu/article/damage…

With Tobias Gehrke I've laid out three first principles to keep in mind for EU secondary sanctions - if they come! 1. Do not discriminate between targets 2. Share costs between partners 3. Limit them to critical goods Read our #ECFR Policy Alert here: ecfr.eu/article/rules-…

📢We're delighted to present ECFR's newest publication format: the policy alert - bringing you short, sharp, direct reaction to the most pressing developments worldwide. Read Tobias Gehrke and FMedunic's on the 11th sanctions package. ECFR European Power ecfr.eu/article/rules-…

With the 11th sanctions package the 🇪🇺 will likely enter deeper into the realm of secondary sanctions. FMedunic and I think there are serious risks down that path. Some basic principles should be agreed, therefore, before venturing onwards 1/4

🔍To discover how Brussels can upgrade its geoeconomics strategy, have a look at the latest publication by Tobias Gehrke and FMedunic: ecfr.eu/publication/fo…

Together with Tobias Gehrke we argue that focusing on de-risking is not enough. The next EU mandate should include: 1. A more proactive strategy beyond risk mitigation 2. A more (geo-)political and less siloed structure 3. A re-thinking of trade principles for critical supply chains

My first piece for DGAP on #exportcontrols scenarios in the 🇺🇸 and what 🇩🇪 can do (in DE). A strategic approach should focus on: 1. closing the gap with other 🇪🇺 member states 2. strengthening the 🇪🇺 Dual-Use Reg. 3. explore multilateral solutions ⬇️ dgap.org/de/forschung/p…

Zur strategischen Gestaltung von Exportkontrollen empfiehlt FMedunic der 🇩🇪 Bundesregierung in seinem Memo: 1⃣ Nationale Kontrollen als Übergangsphase bei strategischen Zukunftstechnologien. 2⃣ Die Dual-Use-­Verordnung der EU bereits heute stärken. 3⃣ Neue Formate ... /1
