imposition of an embargo

This was the first enforcement by the United States since the imposition of an embargo after the coup that overthrew President Jean-Bertrand Aristide on Sept. 30.

Clearly, the imposition of an embargo on the import of agricultural produce and the problems concerning the energy supply are clearly related to Moldova's positive stance with respect to integration with the European Union.

However, after the spontaneous imposition of an embargo on cotton sales to Europe in 1861, these sources of revenue dried up and the Confederacy increasingly turned to issuing debt and printing money to pay for war expenses.
