Since then, the EU has been increasingly trying to pressure Russia with sanctions, targeting more than 2,700 individuals and entities. But some oligarchs are trying to circumvent the sanctions: With the help of arbitration proceedings (ISDS), they sue Ukraine or EU states and demand billions in compensation. In a new paper, PowerShift draws attention to how special actions undermine European security policy. How threatening are these arbitrations? And what needs to change in the future? Nora Noll talks about this with Fabian Flues, Trade Policy Officer at PowerShift.<\/p>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n<p><script class=\"podigee-podcast-player\" src=\"https:\/\/player.podigee-cdn.net\/podcast-player\/javascripts\/podigee-podcast-player.js\" data-configuration=\"https:\/\/podcastdb74f9.podigee.io\/70-investitionsschutz-als-waffe-wie-russische-oligarchen-die-sanktionen-angreifen\/embed?context=external\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Show notes:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"western\">\n<p class=\"western\" align=\"left\">Billion-dollar lawsuits by oligarchs undermine Russia's sanctions: <a href=\"https:\/\/power-shift.de\/en\/milliardenklagen_untergraben_russland_sanktionen\/\">Infographic by PowerShift for download<\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"western\">\n<p class=\"western\" align=\"left\">10 things you should know about ISDS: <a href=\"https:\/\/power-shift.de\/en\/product\/10-dinge-die-du-ueber-isds-wissen-solltest\/\">Free publication of PowerShift<\/a> to download<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"western\">\n<p class=\"western\" align=\"left\">The case of Mikhail Fridman: <a href=\"https:\/\/10isdsstories.org\/case\/case-1\/\">Research by Red Carpet Courts<\/a> with the participation of PowerShift<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"western\">\n<p class=\"western\" align=\"left\"><a href=\"https:\/\/power-shift.de\/en\/media\/podcast_isds_corona\/\">Compass World Economy via ISDS<\/a>: Pandemic profits \u2013 Law firms advise on group actions against COVID-19 measures<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<p>This podcast was made possible with the support of the German Postcode Lottery.
