Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Trade sanctions and embargoes are actions taken by governments to restrict the import or export of certain goods or services with the aim of achieving political goals rather than economic ones. These restrictions could be a ban on certain goods or services, restrictions on imports or exports, or the imposition of tariffs and other trade barriers. The purpose of these restrictions is to force other countries to comply with political demands, such as human rights or nuclear disarmament, or to punish countries for violating international law or norms. Gray market activities, tariffs and barriers, and expropriation and confiscation, on the other hand, may be motivated by economic reasons that affect the free flow of trade in goods, services, or ideas.
