As part of the Common Foreign Security Policy the European Union publishes a sanctions list that is implemented by all member states.
Sanctions programs are created by governments and international organisations to impose measures on entities in response to specific events or situations.
They are bundled into data sources that are imported into the OpenSanctions database.
