The smart trade lawyer knows that every area of trade practice is connected. Every export becomes an import somewhere else, and temporary imports will have to be exported eventually.
Comprehensively sanctioned jurisdictions are also subject to export control embargoes. Supply chain restrictions on imports from certain countries may have the practical effect of reducing technology exports to those countries, too.
