Challenges in Implementing Trade Sanctions Against Russia

This chapter discusses the challenges faced by the UK in implementing trade sanctions against Russia in the midst of Brexit negotiations. It highlights the difficulty in forming a united front due to the UK's position on Brexit, and explains how sanctions often do not effectively work against Russia due to a misunderstanding of their political system. The chapter also explores how sanctions impact the middle and lower classes in Russia, leading to rising food prices and manipulation by the Kremlin to portray the West as the enemy.
