On June 24, 2024, the European Union adopted its 14th sanctions package.
While the focus of this package was to curb the violation and circumvention of sanctions through the introduction of due diligence obligations for non-EU subsidiaries, or the expansion of “no re-export to Russia” clause requirement, ample other amendments were also introduced, such as those relating to transfer of IP rights, or divestment. The list of restricted goods has also been significantly expanded and additional persons and entities have been added to the list of sanctioned persons.
On June 29, 2024, the EU also expanded its sanctions against Belarus in order to align with the goals of the 14th sanctions package. Additional sanctions under the Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad and Sudan regimes were also published.
In this Quarterly Sanctions Update, we summarise the most recent and significant amendments introduced, or proposed, by the EU and the United Kingdom between April and July 2024.
