Are sanctions really the new FCPA, as Lisa Monaco, the Deputy Attorney General of the United States recently stated (https://eur05.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Ftwitter.com%2FTheJusticeDept%2Fstatus%2F1529939557449355265%3Fs%3D20&data=05%7C01%7CCarolyn.Holmes%40dlapiper.com%7Cc345f8b0009f413fcc1708db2092817b%7Ce855e7acc54640d299f7a100522010f9%7C1%7C0%7C638139585845452767%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=0PfjpEfsaTT6p%2Fj3Xd1QDYoCy6evVmJclmWima%2F4eXo%3D&reserved=0)?
