People expecting these sanctions to be airtight or to be a product of mere "free market" problems should probably remember the famous American B-2 spirit bomber (EDIT: SR-71 reconnaissance aircraft) was made with titanium that was over 90% sourced from the Soviet Union during the Cold War.
Short of a military embargo, these sorts of sanctions are only partially effective, and can only reasonably prevent mass redistribution in composite products, or modestly increase costs and hassle.
