The spillovers to eastern Europe have been limited. The degree of impact is commensurate with the level of these countries' trade, remittances, and foreign direct investment (FDI) links with Russia. So far, policy action by the affected countries has focused on mitigating the immediate consequences of spillovers. Mode of access: Internet Minasyan, Gohar. Ostojic, Dragana. Roitman, Agustin.
