The sanctioner(US) has now become the sanction-ee: China threatens sanctions after U.S. arms sale to Taiwan

Greetings,

Are you really paying attention to global events? Are you watching the change of power and politics? Do you not see that America is in decline?

The whole world according to America is dying. Do you not see it? This is what is pervasive the world over.

This is the fall of America. There was a time when America could and would sanction everyone who refused to bow to her dictates. There was a time when none dared to challenge this global order or patter.

Those days have long passed. The sanctioned has now become the sanction-ee! This proves to us that she is no longer unrivaled, unchallenged, and able to force the nations to bow to her, because she is now in their place!

China threatens sanctions after U.S. arms sale to Taiwan

In protest of the Obama administration authorizing a $1.83 billion weapons sale to Taiwan on Wednesday, China summoned Deputy Mission Chief Kaye Lee of the U.S. Embassy in Beijing and threatened sanctions against companies involved in the sale.

“Taiwan is an inalienable part of China’s territory,” Chinese Deputy Foreign Minister Zheng Zeguang said in a statement, adding that the deal is a “serious violation of international laws, as well as China’s territory and security interest.” Zheng said China decided to take “necessary measures, including imposing sanctions, against the companies involved in the arms sale.” The U.S. State Department said Raytheon and Lockheed Martin were the main contractors for weapons in the sale, Reuters reports.

David McKeeby, a spokesman for the Department of State’s Bureau of Political-Military Affairs, said the package includes amphibious assault vehicles and anti-aircraft and anti-ship systems. “Our longstanding policy on arms sales to Taiwan has been consistent across six different U.S. administrations,” he said. “We believe our consistent policy has contributed to the security of Taiwan, and has also supported the maintenance of peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait.”
