Chambers and Partners, a leading international research company, has published its updated Sanctions 2025 guide. This is the second consecutive year that Ukraine has been featured in this authoritative international publication.
At the invitation of the Chambers editorial team, the Ukrainian section was authored by VB Partners lawyers, who systematically handle high-profile sanctions cases and shape practice in this area.
Key highlights of the review:
- Trends
- Expansion of sanctions as a national security tool
- Introduction of restrictions on individuals and companies associated with the Russian Federation
- Potential criminalisation of sanctions violations
- Regulation
- Mechanisms for enforcing sanctions and draft legislative changes
- The role of the Ministry of Justice and the High Anti-Corruption Court in confiscation procedures

The participation of Ukrainian experts in Chambers Sanctions is an important step towards increasing the transparency of Ukraine's sanctions policy and informing the international business community about national practices in the field of sanctions.
