EMBARGOED! Episode 46: Addressing the Russia Conundrum

With escalating U.S. and international sanctions and export controls further isolating Russia, and no end in sight to the conflict in Ukraine, Brian and Tim share their thoughts on surprising developments thus far, as well as the regulatory and practical challenges faced by companies whether they are seeking to wind down operations in Russia or stick it out. They also provide a brief recap of the most significant actions of the past few weeks and ponder what could be coming next. Finally, in the Lightning Round, Brian and Tim cover the latest on JCPOA 2.0 and reports that a deal is within reach.

EMBARGOED! Episode 44: Afghanistan in the Spotlight (while Iran, Russia, and China Lurk Offstage)

Brian and Tim discuss the new E.O. aimed at resolving the question of what to do with Da Afghanistan Bank’s assets in the U.S. and debate whether it will work as intended. Next, they place bets on whether it’s too late for JCPOA 2.0 to happen and discuss how far the U.S. may be prepared to go to impose costs on China if it disregards the (possible) “crushing” sanctions that could be imposed upon Russia. Finally, Brian and Tim stick with China to briefly cover the recently unsealed trade secret theft charges against Hytera Communications and an atypical CFIUS review initiated by a U.S. company unhappy with its Chinese investors.
