Re: Two Minutes Hate
Not comprehensive sanctions. According to my company's internal source, the only U.S. sanctions are on individuals "deemed by the Secretary of Treasury to be undermining democratic efforts" or some such. As far as UN sanctions, I can't find anything on country-wide sanctions, just some limited resolutions involving the Mugabe regime. I'll try to puzzle it out if I don't get paralyzed by laziness. I.e., I probably won't.
TL;DR: There don't appear to be economic sanctions in place that would've prevented this asshole from doing what he did.
