The blocking statute could protect the court by preventing European companies from complying with U.S. sanctions.

“This automaticity stems from the time when we thought that the Americans were still our friends. Of course we take over sanctions from the Americans. They liberated our continent. But that time is over, and we need to stop automatically following the State Department, knowing also what kind of policies are currently being developed in that place.”
