Saying so is like saying that all laws are the same as a tool, they serve the same purpose, and there is no difference between felonies, misdemeanors, and infractions.
Or, you are saying that even though the Magnitsky act does not entail imprisonment, it is the same as the national security law which does.
- dirtyid 6y agoI'm saying supranational instruments like this is designed to influence behavior beyond the borders of the origin country, to said countries interests. Countries have different interests and capabilities, so who the target and how they sanction will be different. US uses SWIFT because only she can, Russia publicly assassinates while denying with a wink, China is... just calling for arrest so far. It's not particularly credible outside of diaspora chilling affect because many countries will never accede to it. The important highlight is that China is formalizing it's supranational toolset. Like this list is no where near GuoWenGui / Miles Kwok tier of irritant for CCP, but China was only trying to arrest him via Interpol in 2017.
