After a tumultuous and historic week, Brian and Tim gather themselves to discuss the U.S. (and global) response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. They start by diving in to the broad, coordinated economic sanctions aimed at debilitating Russia’s financial sector and Putin’s inner circle, debate how well the new measures will work, and contemplate what could be coming next. They next turn to the significant expansion of export controls implicating Russia and discuss the likely impact. Finally, in the Lightning Round, Brian and Tim bid farewell to DOJ’s China Initiative and read between the lines to decipher DOJ’s ongoing priorities.

Compliance into the Weeds is the only weekly podcast which takes a deep dive into a compliance related topic, literally going into the weeds to more fully explore a subject. This week, Matt and Tom take a somewhat somber view on the Russia invasion of Ukraine. Some of the issues we consider:
- Discussion of sanctions.
- What do sanctions mean for US, UK and EU countries?
- How companies should think about doing business in Russia going forward.
- What about energy production and consumption?
- US company employees in Ukraine and Russia.
- The role of China in a potential resolution.
