  • Western Economic and Political Sanctions As Instruments of Strategic Competition with Russia – Opportunities and Risks
    chapter 13 Western Economic and Political Sanctions as Instruments of Strategic Competition with Russia – Opportunities and Risks Joachim Krause Abstract This chapter deals with the efforts of the eu and the us to put pressure on Russia since March 2014. It addresses the question whether or not there was a consistent strategic logic behind Western sanctions against Russia. It looks at the effects of the sanctions and how far have they actually contributed to the economic plight of the Russian economy. It asks whether there were indications that Western sanctions might drive Russia into a military escalation. The author arrives at the conclusion that most Western governments have been more or less incapable of dealing properly with the kind of strategic challenge Russia is posing today and that sanctions have been pre- dominantly symbolic in nature with no clear idea on what is to be done if sanctions fail to change the course of Russian policy or, even worse, if they drive Russia into seeking a military solution. Keywords Russia – European Union – economic sanctions – Western strategic policy 1 Introduction Since the occupation and annexation of the Crimea in February and March of 2014, the Western community (i.e. the eu, nato as well as the broader Western world) has imposed both political and economic sanctions on Russia. The intention of these sanctions was often expressed in vague and general language, but they were understood as measures taken in reaction to the unlawful annex- ation of the Crimea. More sanctions were imposed after the incursions of Russian regular and irregular military and Federal Security Service (fsb) units in various parts of the Ukraine and the de-facto secession (possibly foreboding eventual annexation by Russia) of Donetsk, Luhansk and other cities in the © koninklijke brill nv, leiden, ���6 | doi �0.��63/9789004�99894_0�4 <UN> Western Sanctions as Instruments of Strategic Competition 271 Donbass area in Southeastern Ukraine.

  • BETD Gabriel and Zypries Open the Third Berlin Energy Transition
    Gabriel and Zypries open the third Berlin Energy Transition Dialogue Berlin, 20 March 2017. Foreign Minister Sigmar Gabriel and Minister for Economic Affairs Brigitte Zypries are opening the third Berlin Energy Transition Dialogue at the Federal Foreign Office in Berlin today. Numerous ministers, including from Argentina, China, Cuba, Denmark and the United Arab Emirates, as well as high-ranking delegations, business representatives and guests from more than 93 countries are expected. The Berlin Energy Transition Dialogue is being hosted by the Federal Government together with the German Renewable Energy Federation (BEE), the German Solar Industry Association (BSW-Solar), the consultancy firm eclareon and the German Energy Agency (dena) and is being accompanied by an extensive side events. On the second day of the conference tomorrow, Environment Minister Barbara Hendricks will speak on behalf of the Federal Government. The objective of the conference is to generate new ideas for the German Government’s energy agenda in the G20 process. The International Energy Agency (IEA) and the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) will present their study “Perspectives for the Energy Transition: Investment Needs for a Low Carbon Energy System” at the conference. This study was carried out with support from the Federal Ministry of Economic Affairs and Energy and looks into which investments are necessary in order to achieve the Paris climate goals and how misguided investments in energy technologies that are harmful to the environment can be avoided. Foreign Minister Gabriel issued the following statement on this: “The energy transition has long ceased to be a national project. It is a global task and a mission for all of us, as well as a way to ensure a future of prosperity and stability.

  • To Chancellor Dr. Angela Merkel C/O Minister of Finance Dr. Wolfgang Schäuble C/O Vice Chancellor Sigmar Gabriel
    To Chancellor Dr. Angela Merkel c/o Minister of Finance Dr. Wolfgang Schäuble c/o Vice Chancellor Sigmar Gabriel Dear Chancellor Merkel, We, the undersigned organisations from [XX] European countries are very grateful for your commitment to the financial transaction tax (FTT) in the framework of Enhanced Coopera- tion. Like you, we are of the opinion that only a broad based tax as specified in the coalition agreement and spelt out in the draft of the European Commission will be sufficiently compre- hensive. However, we are concerned that under the pressure of the finance industry some govern- ments will try to water down the proposal of the Commission. Particularly problematic would be to exempt derivatives from taxation or to tax only some of them. Derivatives represent the biggest share of transactions on the financial markets. Hence, exemptions would lead imme- diately to a substantial reduction of tax revenues. Furthermore, many derivatives are the source of dangerous stability risks and would be misused as instruments for the avoidance of the taxation of shares and bonds. We therefore ask you not to give in to the pressure of the finance industry and to tax deriva- tives as put forward in the draft proposal of the Commission. The primacy of politics over financial markets must be restored. In addition we would like to ask you to send a political signal with regard to the use of the tax revenues. We know that the German budget law does not allow the assignment of tax reve- nues for a specific purpose. However, you yourself have already stated that you could envis- age the revenues being used partly to combat youth unemployment in Europe.

  • Political Scandals, Newspapers, and the Election Cycle
    Political Scandals, Newspapers, and the Election Cycle Marcel Garz Jil Sörensen Jönköping University Hamburg Media School April 2019 We thank participants at the 2015 Economics of Media Bias Workshop, members of the eponymous research network, and seminar participants at the University of Hamburg for helpful comments and suggestions. We are grateful to Spiegel Publishing for access to its news archive. Daniel Czwalinna, Jana Kitzinger, Henning Meyfahrt, Fabian Mrongowius, Ulrike Otto, and Nadine Weiss provided excellent research assistance. The views expressed in this paper are those of the authors and do not necessarily represent those of Hamburg Media School. Corresponding author: Jil Sörensen, Hamburg Media School, Finkenau 35, 22081 Hamburg, Germany. Phone: + 49 40 413468 72, fax: +49 40 413468 10, email: [email protected] Abstract Election outcomes are often influenced by political scandal. While a scandal usually has negative consequences for the ones being accused of a transgression, political opponents and even media outlets may benefit. Anecdotal evidence suggests that certain scandals could be orchestrated, especially if they are reported right before an election. This study examines the timing of news coverage of political scandals relative to the national election cycle in Germany. Using data from electronic newspaper archives, we document a positive and highly significant relationship between coverage of government scandals and the election cycle. On average, one additional month closer to an election increases the amount of scandal coverage by 1.3%, which is equivalent to an 62% difference in coverage between the first and the last month of a four- year cycle. We provide suggestive evidence that this pattern can be explained by political motives of the actors involved in the production of scandal, rather than business motives by the newspapers.
