Abstract
Using a novel comprehensive dataset on sanctions imposed on the exports to Russia after 2022, we document four stylized facts. First, these sanctions covered 33 percent of Russia's pre-2022 imports in value. Second, though most of the sanctions were concentrated in a few high-tech product categories, at least as much import within these categories remained unsanctioned. Third, substantial variation exists in the specific sets of banned products across countries despite coordinating efforts. Fourth, most sanctioning countries have already prohibited most of their pre-2022 exports to Russia, limiting their future ability to impose additional trade sanctions.Citation
