Now you are into "do you have balls to enforce sanctions" not sanctions themselves. This is well beyond your SOX responsibility training.
Take the Iranian Tanker. The sanctions are against Syria, not Iran. It wasnt an EU country trading with them, So the argument that EU sanctions dont apply to non EU countries is not valid. The location just provided an air of legitimacy.
And then there is the arcane law of naval hot pursuit.
