Blocking Regulation: the first step towards solving the conflict of laws between EU and US sanctions
25-01-2022

The ruling confirms that it is possible to terminate contracts with a US designated person without providing reasons. However, in civil proceedings it is for the EU party to prove that, when it sought to terminate a contract, it did not seek to comply with US sanctions in the absence of an authorisation by the European Commission.
