Webinar: Monday, February 27, 3:00 – 4:15pm EST.
This online panel discussion aims at exploring the interplay between geopolitical considerations and the imposition of targeted human rights sanctions. India will serve as a case study given its geopolitical importance in Asia and the various relations it holds with countries with Magnitsky-style laws i.e. UK, USA, Canada, and Australia. The discussion aims at prompting critical reflections among decision-makers in those countries, on the use of targeted human rights sanctions in situations where geopolitical interests are at play. It will create a unique platform to hear from experts across different countries.
