In this episode, hosts Brian Fleming and Tim O’Toole summon all of their prognostication powers to take a closer look at the Halkbank case, the future of U.S. sanctions against Iran, Venezuela, and North Korea, and the latest OFAC enforcement action. Plus: The Lightning Round features more Huawei (of course) and deep thoughts on the meaning of rejection (at least as defined, or not, by OFAC).
