China imposes sanctions against the US over Hong Kong

5

The direct intervention of the US administration in the internal affairs of China provoked a tough response from Beijing.

According to a statement by the official representative of the PRC Foreign Ministry, Hua Chunying, in response to Washington's adoption of the Law on the Protection of Human Rights and Democracy in Hong Kong, Beijing is suspending the consideration of US requests for military ships and aircraft to visit Hong Kong.

The Celestial Empire also imposes sanctions on several US non-governmental organizations, which, using their employees and activists, fueled protests in Hong Kong and coordinated the actions of protesters.

It is unlikely that anyone will be surprised that these organizations included Human Rights Watch, NDI and Freedom House, whose footprint is easily visible in all the “color” revolutions that have swept the world over the past several decades.

The actions of the United States leadership and the subsequent reaction of the PRC authorities indicate that, despite a series of optimistic statements made by both sides earlier, the confrontation between the countries, and in particular the trade war, will only intensify.

    The beginning is good ... But these "sanctions" are still only "nominal", it is more likely even a self-defense reaction, not sanctions. That would be forbidden to produce and use "apples" at home, that would be sanctions ... but the toad strangles ... Anyway, the Chinese will have to choose sooner or later - either American grandmothers, or their own independence ...

      Don’t say it. Russian sanctions against American officials, it seems to be stupid, but no, Biden could not enter, Nuland was also very surprised at the refusal, the former Ambassador McFaul announced the collapse of his scientific career, the former chief Gestapo Guantanamo Prison, now the head of the U.S. Football Federation (socket), was unable to attend the World Cup: he was warned that upon entry he would be immediately arrested, for many years in prison, without charge, two Russians.
      So laughter, laughter, and many high-ranking Americans, due to Chinese sanctions, will collapse business.

        ... God forbid ... But anyway - these things bring trouble only to specific individuals, and what the United States does with its sanctions and similar actions affects the whole country, undermines the regime, worsens the welfare of people, etc. We are not capable of answering them like that, at least for now, and China can, but ... has not yet done so.

    China also imposes sanctions on several US non-governmental organizations

    To be honest, this is not a sanction, it is a laugh. laughing This is an appearance, it seems like you need to somehow react. But even so. The Americans will not even notice them, these sanctions will laugh at China. And China will not do economic sanctions. Because it is heavily dependent on America, there is the main sales of Chinese goods.

      Good laugh. The Americans poured into China through "non-governmental organizations" up to 5 billion dollars a year for all kinds of support for democracy and freedom (torture of Chinese by Americans). This is tens of thousands of people in the United States. And suddenly - they cannot carry money, leaving themselves a fat piece of "tip". No grants, no salaries. Freelance Americans are going hungry.
      In Russia, due to the death of Alekseeva, the Helsinki group lost a grant, and 26 people with a salary of 60 thousand instantly became insignificant beggars.
