EU Publishes Sanctions Whistleblower Tool

The EU launched a Sanctions Whistleblower Tool to aid the reporting of past, ongoing or planned sanctions violations. "It responds to the Commission's ambition to fully support the effective implementation and enforcement of EU sanctions," the commission said March 4. "The EU has more than 40 sanctions regimes in place and their effectiveness relies on their proper implementation and enforcement, including in thwarting circumvention and evasion of sanctions." The platform was announced by the European Commission in January 2021.
