Not military, but the US could impose targeted sanctions to Chinese actors just like they have regarding Russian behavior.
It's not a guaranteed success but it would be sending a very strong signal. Better than nothing, perhaps
- PKop 7y agoThey're in the middle of a trade war, which it seems both sides are looking to de-escalate. I don't think US wants to pressure on other matters, nor do I think it is in the interests of American citizens to do so. China could just as easily see as act of war or at very least, threatening their sovereignty. Maybe they sell their treasuries or restrict rare earths, or simply cut off supplies amongst their $400 Billion goods surplus with the US. I really don't think they'll allow themselves to be pushed around on this, out of general principle.
