“The word “sanction” comes from the French sanction, and initially from the Latin sanctio (the strictest decree, the legislation indicating punishment for its violation), explains HSE professor, philologist Marina Koroleva (creator of the podcast “Pure Russian with Marina Koroleva”). — In Russian, “sanction” has two meanings. Firstly, that is permission, approval by the very best authority (instance: “a company can get permission to export goods abroad”). Secondly, it’s a authorized norm that signifies the results of breaking the legislation. Or a measure of affect on states which have violated one thing.
That is, the sanction of the sanction is totally different, but when we recall the Latin supply, there may be nothing surprising on this. For the sanctio is the legislation. It can punish a violation, or it could permit one thing.
