👉 Embargo, in the context of international diplomacy and law, refers to a temporary suspension or restriction on certain activities or communications that may lead to an immediate cessation of diplomatic relations between two countries. Embargoes are typically imposed by one country against another for reasons such as economic sanctions, territorial claims, or other security concerns.
In practice, embargoes can be enforced through various means, including diplomatic pressure, military force if necessary, or through the use of international organizations like the United Nations Security Council
