Abstract
Since states have been fighting for power, they have used economic tactics in addition to military ones. Such trade policy measures for geopolitical purposes are discussed below. On the basis of Russia's war of aggression, the West can justify these interventions in free trade. Companies do not internalise power-political effects, therefore states should reduce these security policy externalities.
