In this week's EMBARGOED!, Brian and Tim discuss OFAC's recent pronouncements on risk-based compliance and humanitarian assistance and what they mean for companies balancing the demands of the COVID-19 pandemic. We also cover new guidance on exemptions from FEMA's PPE export restrictions, the possible end of an era in Venezuela, and North Korea's ignominious moment in the spotlight. Plus, the Lightning Round features quick takes on the Industrial Bank of Korea DPA, the resuscitation of two lawsuits seeking damages for confiscated property in Cuba, and the prospects of U.S. sanctions against Iraq.
