What is Human Rights Watch’s position on sanctions?
Human Rights Watch supports the use of certain types of sanctions including targeted sanctions and travel bans, and restrictions on military, trade, financial, economic, and other relations as a means to condemn situations involving grave or widespread human rights abuses or humanitarian law violations, to assert pressure to end those abuses, to hold those responsible to account, and as a means to deter other parties from becoming complicit in abuses. The aim is to affect the actions of policymakers and perpetrators of abuses while minimizing negative effects on the general population.
