Outcome of the workshop:
A more universal, impartial and effective international monitoring body on smart sanctions should exist. The United Nations Security Council should be restructured in order to have balanced and fair representation, especially from the global south (developing world). International law should be fully respected and enforced by all states worldwide. Emphasis should henceforth be on smart, targeted or specific sanctions instead of comprehensive ones.
