We all saw the handshakes – but Trump's meeting with Putin in Alaska has yet to see a peace deal signed and an end to the invasion of Ukraine. Now, it’s being reported that the US is considering a new wave of sanctions on Russia’s financial enablers – looking at secondary countries acting as middle men. Trump also wants to see more action from the EU – demanding trade tariffs on India and China as well as a quicker end to the EU importing Russian energy. All of this goes to show that cutting one country out of the financial system is NOT. EASY. AT. ALL. In the re-spin (originally published in November 2024) our expert host Marit Rødevand is joined by Chloe Cina of RUSI, Jessica Cath of Thistle Initiatives, and Mitch Trehan of Allica Bank.The panel discuss three provocative statements: "the compliance industry is more focused on box-ticking than truly fighting financial crime", "sanctions are great for headlines - but criminals use them as a roadmap", and "AI hasn't stopped criminals—it’s just made their jobs easier".Will Trump's new sanctions package bring an end to the war in Ukraine – or are we still just ticking boxes?
