>Conclusion<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A foreign owner opening a Belarusian company hears \u201cmulti-currency account\u201d and pictures what it means almost anywhere else: hold and freely move euros and dollars alongside the local currency. In 2026 that picture is wrong, and understanding why is essential before you rely on the account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Under the sanctions in place on parts of the Belarusian banking system, the four currencies you might hold do very different things in practice. Russian roubles and Chinese yuan have become the working currencies, because Russia and China are Belarus\u2019s main trading partners and the payment channels to both still function. The euro works only selectively \u2014 through the right bank, for trade that sanctions still permit, and often slowly. And the US dollar is the most constrained of all. So a Belarusian multi-currency account is real, but it is not four equal currencies in one place \u2014 it is a set of very unequal capabilities, and which of them you actually need depends on who you trade with. This article sets out what each of the four can actually do in 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is general information, not legal or financial advice, and the area changes fast: confirm the current position and \u2014 as the note below stresses \u2014 keep everything strictly sanctions-compliant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_account_is_real_%E2%80%94_but_the_currencies_arent_equal\"><\/span><strong>The account is real \u2014 but the currencies aren\u2019t equal<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Start with the shape of it. A Belarusian corporate account can be multi-currency: the local rouble alongside US dollars, euros and Russian roubles as standard, and Chinese yuan at some <a href=\"https:\/\/opencompanyinbelarus.com\/eng\/pages\/bank-account\/\">banks<\/a>, all under the oversight of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbrb.by\/engl\/\">National Bank<\/a>. Opening one is routine \u2014 with the documents in order, a <a href=\"https:\/\/opencompanyinbelarus.com\/eng\/pages\/open-company-in-belarus\/\">company<\/a> can have its account within days. But holding a currency and being able to move it freely are two different things, and in 2026 the four foreign currencies differ sharply in what they actually let you do. The account is not the question; what each currency does through it is. The rest of this article takes them one by one, because treating them as interchangeable is exactly the mistake that leaves an owner stuck when a payment will not clear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_the_currencies_diverged_correspondent_banking_and_SWIFT\"><\/span><strong>Why the currencies diverged: correspondent banking and SWIFT<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To understand why four currencies behave so differently, it helps to see the plumbing. A cross-border payment in a currency is not sent directly; it runs through a correspondent bank in that currency\u2019s home system, with the instruction carried over a messaging network \u2014 for most of the world, SWIFT. For the euro and the dollar, those correspondents sit in the West, and the messaging is Western-facing, which is precisely where sanctions bite: several Belarusian banks have been excluded from SWIFT, others have lost or had restricted their Western correspondent relationships, and Western banks screen and may refuse payments to sanctioned institutions. The rouble and the yuan run through different plumbing \u2014 Russian and Chinese systems and correspondents \u2014 which is why they keep working while the euro and dollar do not. So the divergence is not arbitrary or a temporary preference; it is structural. The currency that clears is the one whose payment rails are still open to your bank, and for a Belarusian bank in 2026 those rails point East. This is also why the picture cannot be read from the outside as a single \u201cBelarus can\/can\u2019t do X\u201d rule: two Belarusian banks can have quite different reach in the same currency depending on which correspondents they have kept, which is why the choice of bank does so much of the work, and why a general answer is never a substitute for checking the specific institution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"EUR_%E2%80%94_usable_but_selectively_and_with_scrutiny\"><\/span><strong>EUR \u2014 usable, but selectively and with scrutiny<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The euro can work, but not universally, and never by assumption. Whether it works depends on the specific bank\u2019s correspondent arrangements \u2014 the banks through which euro payments are routed \u2014 on that bank not being one that has lost or restricted such access, and on the transaction being one that <a href=\"https:\/\/finance.ec.europa.eu\/eu-and-world\/sanctions-restrictive-measures_en\">sanctions permit<\/a>, because Western banks apply their own controls and may filter or refuse payments to certain institutions. So for legitimate, permitted trade, through the right bank, the euro is possible \u2014 but it is slower, more compliance-heavy and less certain than an owner used to Western banking expects. The practical rule is to verify a bank\u2019s current euro correspondent position before you rely on it, not after a payment stalls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"USD_%E2%80%94_the_most_constrained\"><\/span><strong>USD \u2014 the most constrained<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The dollar is the hardest of the four. Some Belarusian banks still handle US dollars, but not for every counterparty, and dollar clearing runs through the US financial system, which makes it the most exposed to sanctions and the most likely to be blocked or filtered on the way. Treat the dollar as the currency to rely on least. If part of your business genuinely needs USD, do not build a payment plan around it on the assumption it will clear \u2014 confirm, for the specific bank and the specific counterparty, that it actually will, and have an alternative currency ready if it does not. For many Belarusian companies, the honest planning position is that the dollar is not a currency to count on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"CNY_%E2%80%94_the_growth_currency_for_trade_with_China\"><\/span><strong>CNY \u2014 the growth currency for trade with China<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The yuan is going the other way \u2014 it is increasingly the currency that works. It is offered at some Belarusian banks through their correspondent networks, and as Belarus\u2019s trade with China grows, the Chinese yuan is becoming a practical settlement currency precisely where the euro and dollar are constrained. If your trade is with China, CNY is likely the currency that actually does what you need, so the question is which banks offer it and on what terms. It is the clearest example of the wider shift: the currencies that function for a Belarusian company in 2026 track Belarus\u2019s real trading partners, not the Western currencies an owner might have assumed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"RUB_%E2%80%94_the_working_currency_for_the_largest_partner\"><\/span><strong>RUB \u2014 the working currency for the largest partner<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Russian rouble is, in practice, the most functional foreign currency for a Belarusian company, for the simple reason that Russia is Belarus\u2019s largest trading partner and those payment channels operate. For trade with Russia, rouble settlement is the norm and the account does what you would expect a foreign-currency account to do \u2014 receive, hold, pay. If the bulk of your cross-border business is with Russia, the rouble is the currency your account will most reliably serve. Between the rouble and the yuan sits most of the actual, working cross-border capability of a Belarusian account today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"BYN_%E2%80%94_the_local_currency_you_cant_ignore\"><\/span><strong>BYN \u2014 the local currency you can\u2019t ignore<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Amid the focus on foreign currencies, do not overlook the Belarusian rouble, because a company operating in Belarus lives in it. Domestic settlements, salaries, most taxes and day-to-day operating costs are in BYN, so whatever foreign currency your revenue arrives in, a good deal of it will be converted into and spent as local roubles. That makes the exchange between your foreign-currency and BYN balances a routine, frequent operation rather than an afterthought, and it makes the local rouble the currency your account uses most, even if it is not the one your cross-border trade is priced in. For an owner used to running a company in a single currency, the mental shift is to see the account as constantly converting: foreign currency in, local rouble out, under rules that govern how and when that conversion happens. The BYN side is where the company actually runs. And because that conversion happens constantly, the exchange spread and the timing of conversions become a real cost and a real planning point \u2014 not the dramatic part of the story, but the part that touches the account every week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/opencompanyinbelarus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/businesswoman-working-desk-office-with-marketing-graph-statistics-analysis-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5069\" srcset=\"https:\/\/opencompanyinbelarus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/businesswoman-working-desk-office-with-marketing-graph-statistics-analysis-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/opencompanyinbelarus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/businesswoman-working-desk-office-with-marketing-graph-statistics-analysis-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/opencompanyinbelarus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/businesswoman-working-desk-office-with-marketing-graph-statistics-analysis-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/opencompanyinbelarus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/businesswoman-working-desk-office-with-marketing-graph-statistics-analysis-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/opencompanyinbelarus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/businesswoman-working-desk-office-with-marketing-graph-statistics-analysis-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Currency_control_converting_and_moving_money\"><\/span><strong>Currency control: converting and moving money<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Beyond which currency clears, Belarus applies currency regulation to how money moves, and it shapes what the account does in practice. Foreign-trade contracts and cross-border payments sit within a currency-control framework overseen by the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbrb.by\/engl\/\">National Bank<\/a> \u2014 with rules that can require foreign-currency proceeds to be brought back and, at times, partly converted, and that attach conditions and timelines to cross-border settlement. The detail change, and it is exactly the kind of thing to confirm current rules rather than assume, but the principle to plan around is that moving foreign currency in and out of a Belarusian company is not entirely free \u2014 it is regulated, documented and time-bound. So a currency plan is not only about which currency clears through which bank; it is also about the currency-control rules that govern converting it, holding it and repatriating it. Building the <a href=\"https:\/\/opencompanyinbelarus.com\/eng\/news\/corporate-tax-belarus\/\">tax<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/opencompanyinbelarus.com\/eng\/pages\/accounting-services-in-belarus\/\">accounting<\/a> side around those rules from the start keeps the money moving the way the business needs, and avoids the common shock of a proceeds-repatriation or conversion requirement surfacing only when a payment is already in flight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_choose_the_bank_and_plan_the_currencies\"><\/span><strong>How to choose the bank and plan the currencies<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Put it together into a plan. Match the currencies to who you actually trade with: East-facing trade in roubles and yuan, permitted EU-facing trade in euros through a bank that can still route them, and dollars only where you have confirmed they will clear. Choose the bank not for its brochure but for its correspondent arrangements in the currency you need \u2014 and verify that position before you open, because the <a href=\"https:\/\/opencompanyinbelarus.com\/eng\/pages\/bank-account\/\">account<\/a> is only as useful as the routes behind it. Fold the currency plan into the wider setup \u2014 the <a href=\"https:\/\/opencompanyinbelarus.com\/eng\/pages\/open-llc-in-belarus\">company<\/a>, the <a href=\"https:\/\/opencompanyinbelarus.com\/eng\/news\/corporate-tax-belarus\/\">tax<\/a> and the <a href=\"https:\/\/opencompanyinbelarus.com\/eng\/pages\/accounting-services-in-belarus\/\">accounting<\/a>, with the reporting and currency-control rules that the <a href=\"https:\/\/nalog.gov.by\/\">tax authority<\/a> and the National Bank apply \u2014 so the money can actually move the way the business needs. And keep all of it strictly sanctions-compliant, with screening and advice, because the currency that works is only useful if the transaction is one you are permitted to make.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Choosing_the_bank_what_to_check_before_you_open\"><\/span><strong>Choosing the bank: what to check before you open<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because so much rides on the bank rather than the account, it is worth knowing what to check before you commit. First, its correspondent arrangements in the currency you actually need \u2014 a bank that routes euros today may not tomorrow, and one that has never handled your currency will not start for you. Second, the bank\u2019s own sanctions status: if the bank itself is sanctioned, that affects not just its payment rails but whether your foreign parent is even permitted to deal with it, which is a question for the parent\u2019s own advisers. Third, the practicalities \u2014 English-language support, the KYC it will run on your business, the substance it expects a company to show, and the fees. Match all of that to who you trade with and in which currency, and verify it before opening rather than discovering a gap after the first payment fails. The right <a href=\"https:\/\/opencompanyinbelarus.com\/eng\/pages\/bank-account\/\">account<\/a> is the one whose routes and status fit your business; the wrong one is a source of stuck payments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"A_worked_example_matching_currencies_to_trade_partners\"><\/span><strong>A worked example: matching currencies to trade partners<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Two companies show how the plan changes with the trade. The first imports from Russia and China and sells on; its account, at a bank with working rouble and yuan routes, does everything it needs \u2014 receive in RUB and CNY, convert to BYN for local costs, pay suppliers in the East \u2014 and the euro and dollar barely feature. The second is a service company invoicing EU clients; for it, the euro is the currency that matters, so the whole banking choice turns on finding a non-sanctioned bank that can still route euros for permitted trade, accepting that payments will be slower and more heavily scrutinised, and treating the dollar as a fallback it cannot count on. Same country, same account type, opposite banking strategies \u2014 because the currency that works is the one your trade partners pay in, and the bank that works is the one with the routes to clear it. The plan follows the trade, not the other way round. And a company that trades in both directions needs both plans at once \u2014 an Eastern bank relationship for the roubles and yuan that do the heavy lifting and, if it also sells into the EU, a separate, carefully chosen route for the euro \u2014 which is a real structuring question worth settling before the company opens its first account, not after.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Common_mistakes_owners_make\"><\/span><strong>Common mistakes owners make<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A handful of errors recur. Assuming a multi-currency account means free euros and dollars \u2014 the assumption this whole article exists to correct. Choosing a bank by its brand or size rather than its correspondent routes in the currency you need. Building cash flow on the US dollar, the least reliable of the four, without a fallback. Overlooking currency control \u2014 the conversion and repatriation rules that govern moving foreign currency \u2014 and being surprised by them. Forgetting that the bank\u2019s own sanctions status can bar the foreign parent from dealing with it, a problem no amount of Belarusian-side planning fixes. And, worst of all, treating any of this as a way around sanctions rather than a landscape to navigate compliantly. Every one of these comes from importing an assumption from ordinary banking into a system that no longer works that way. Plan from the trade partners and the currency outward, choose the bank for its routes and status, mind the currency-control rules, and comply without exception \u2014 and the account does its job. Skip those steps and you get the opposite: a multi-currency account that holds four currencies and moves only some of them, discovered one failed payment at a time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_each_currency_actually_does_in_2026\"><\/span><strong>What each currency actually does in 2026<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Four currencies in one account \u2014 and four very different sets of capabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th><strong>Currency<\/strong><\/th><th><strong>How usable in 2026<\/strong><\/th><th><strong>Best for<\/strong><\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td><strong>EUR<\/strong><\/td><td>Selective \u2014 through the right non-sanctioned bank\u2019s correspondents, for permitted trade; slower and compliance-heavy<\/td><td>Permitted EU-facing trade, via the right bank<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>USD<\/strong><\/td><td>The most constrained \u2014 only some banks, not all counterparties; the most likely to be blocked<\/td><td>Least reliable; confirm before you count on it<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>CNY<\/strong><\/td><td>Growing \u2014 offered at some banks, functional for China trade<\/td><td>Trade with China<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>RUB<\/strong><\/td><td>The working currency \u2014 functions day to day<\/td><td>Trade with Russia, Belarus\u2019s largest partner<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>*General guide on a fast-changing area; what each currency can do depends on the bank, the counterparty and the current sanctions position, so confirm before you rely on it \u2014 and stay compliant.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n<section class=\"hfaq\">\n    <div class=\"hfaq__container\">\n        <div class=\"hfaq__wrapper\">\n\t\t\t            <h2 class=\"hfaq__title title title-lg\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Frequently_Asked_Questions\"><\/span>Frequently Asked Questions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\t\t\t            <div class=\"hfaq__items\">\n\t\t\t\t                    <div class=\"accordion\">\n                        <div class=\"accordion__head\">Can a Belarusian company hold a multi-currency account?<\/div>\n                        <div class=\"accordion__body\">\n                            <div class=\"accordion__inner\"><p>Yes.

Verify a bank\u2019s euro correspondent position before relying on it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n                        <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t                    <div class=\"accordion\">\n                        <div class=\"accordion__head\">Can a Belarusian company receive US dollars?<\/div>\n                        <div class=\"accordion__body\">\n                            <div class=\"accordion__inner\"><p>It is the most constrained of the four currencies. Some banks still handle USD, but not for every counterparty, and dollar clearing runs through the US financial system, making it the most exposed to sanctions. Do not build a payment plan around the dollar without confirming, for the specific bank and counterparty, that it will clear.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n                        <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t                    <div class=\"accordion\">\n                        <div class=\"accordion__head\">Is CNY (Chinese yuan) available?<\/div>\n                        <div class=\"accordion__body\">\n                            <div class=\"accordion__inner\"><p>At some banks, yes, and it is growing. As trade with China increases, the yuan is becoming a practical settlement currency where the euro and dollar are constrained. If your business is China-facing, CNY is often the currency that works \u2014 check which banks offer it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n                        <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t                    <div class=\"accordion\">\n                        <div class=\"accordion__head\">Is RUB the easiest currency to use?<\/div>\n                        <div class=\"accordion__body\">\n                            <div class=\"accordion__inner\"><p>In practice, the Russian rouble is the most functional foreign currency for a Belarusian company, because Russia is Belarus\u2019s largest trading partner and those channels operate. For trade with Russia, rouble settlement is the norm and the account behaves as you would expect.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n                        <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t                    <div class=\"accordion\">\n                        <div class=\"accordion__head\">Does it matter which bank I choose?<\/div>\n                        <div class=\"accordion__body\">\n                            <div class=\"accordion__inner\"><p>Very much. What each currency can do depends on the bank\u2019s correspondent arrangements, which differ between institutions and change over time. Choose the bank for its routes in the currency you need, and verify that position before you open \u2014 the account is only as useful as the correspondents behind it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n                        <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t                    <div class=\"accordion\">\n                        <div class=\"accordion__head\">Are Belarusian banks on SWIFT?<\/div>\n                        <div class=\"accordion__body\">\n                            <div class=\"accordion__inner\"><p>Some are and some are not \u2014 several have been excluded from SWIFT under sanctions, while others remain connected but may still see payments filtered or refused by Western correspondents. SWIFT connectivity alone does not tell you whether a given payment will clear; the bank\u2019s correspondent arrangements and the counterparty do.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n                        <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t                    <div class=\"accordion\">\n                        <div class=\"accordion__head\">Do sanctions affect my company\u2019s payments?<\/div>\n                        <div class=\"accordion__body\">\n                            <div class=\"accordion__inner\"><p>Yes \u2014 profoundly, which is why the currencies behave so differently. Your company must comply with all applicable sanctions, including those of its own country and its counterparties\u2019, screen its counterparties, and take specialist advice; a foreign parent may itself be restricted. This article describes the landscape; it is not advice on avoiding sanctions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n                        <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t                    <div class=\"accordion\">\n                        <div class=\"accordion__head\">Why do the currencies behave so differently?<\/div>\n                        <div class=\"accordion__body\">\n                            <div class=\"accordion__inner\"><p>Because of the plumbing. Cross-border payments run through correspondent banks and messaging networks; for the euro and dollar those are Western-facing, which is where sanctions bite \u2014 several Belarusian banks are off SWIFT or have lost Western correspondents. The rouble and yuan run through Russian and Chinese systems, which still work. The currency that clears is the one whose rails are open to your bank.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n                        <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t                    <div class=\"accordion\">\n                        <div class=\"accordion__head\">Does my company also need the local rouble (BYN)?<\/div>\n                        <div class=\"accordion__body\">\n                            <div class=\"accordion__inner\"><p>Yes \u2014 unavoidably. Domestic settlements, salaries and most taxes are in BYN, so foreign-currency revenue is regularly converted into local roubles to run the business. In practice the BYN side is the account\u2019s busiest, even if your trade is priced in another currency.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n                        <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t                    <div class=\"accordion\">\n                        <div class=\"accordion__head\">What should I check about a bank before opening?<\/div>\n                        <div class=\"accordion__body\">\n                            <div class=\"accordion__inner\"><p>Its correspondent arrangements in the currency you need; its own sanctions status (which can bar your foreign parent from dealing with it); and the practicalities \u2014 English support, KYC, expected substance, fees. Match all of it to who you trade with, and verify before opening, not after a payment fails.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n                        <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t                    <div class=\"accordion\">\n                        <div class=\"accordion__head\">Can proper planning get around the sanctions?<\/div>\n                        <div class=\"accordion__body\">\n                            <div class=\"accordion__inner\"><p>No \u2014 and that is not what this is.
