Collateral Benefit? The war in Ukraine and Effects on European Supply Chain Sustainability
- • Supply chains between Ukraine, Russia and Europe have been affected either by fighting or political sanctions. European governments and firms are looking for alternative suppliers • The German and the planned European supply chain laws require adherence to minimum social and environmental standards in procurement • Substitution of Russian exports is more difficult but may lead to improvement of EU 27 supply chain sustainability. • Substitution of imports from Ukraine is likely to have negative welfare effects due to trade diversion. • EU sanctions on imports from Russia appear to improve EU supply chain sustainability. • This analysis provides policy makers with a tool to identify supplying countries that improve European supply chain sustainability.
