China accuses US of ‘bullying’ with new ‘illegal’ sanctions

February 27, 2023

BEIJING (AP) — China on Monday accused the U.S. of “outright bullying and double standards” in leveling what it called “illegal” sanctions on Chinese companies as part of U.S. actions against Russia’s Wagner Group and related companies and individuals.

The entities were targeted for their role in the war in Ukraine and mercenary activities, including human rights abuses, in Africa.

The sanctions “have no basis in international law or authorization from the Security Council, and are typical illegal unilateral sanctions and long-arm jurisdiction,” Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning said at a daily briefing.

The punitive measures were “seriously harming China’s interests” and China “strongly rejects and deplores that and has lodged solemn complaints with the U.S. side,” Mao said.

“While the U.S. has intensified its efforts to send weapons to one of the parties to the conflict, resulting in an endless war, it has frequently spread false information about China’s supply of weapons to Russia, taking the opportunity to sanction Chinese companies for no reason,” she said. “This is outright bullying and double standards.” https://apnews.com/article/politics-china-bd45b29ce3431b4ccb18b044e8a34bc6

Yes, China is right that the USA has double standards and uses bullying.

On March 3, 2022, I posted the following:

Just like most roads go two ways, sanctions have affects on those who impose them and those they are imposed upon. …

Other nations are looking at what is happening to Russia and also will take steps.

Steps that will tend to reduce their dependency on USA dollars. And some will look to gold.

Yes, the USA is harming its position as economic leader of the world by what it is now doing.

The USA will be harmed by its sanctions.

Now the Europeans will be hurt as well. …

There are many unintended consequences of sanctions. …

And the affect of sanctions on Russia look to contribute to more inflation. (Thiel B. WP: Why the enormous scale of financial pain being inflicted on Russia worries some in the West’ ZH: Zoltan Pozsar Warns Russian Sanctions Threaten Dollar’s Reserve Status. COGwriter, March 3, 2022)

And yes, months after that was posted the USA experienced its highest inflation in 40 years (see AP: US inflation hit a new 40-year high last month of 8.6%; COGwriter: Much more food price inflation is coming), the Eurozone had its highest inflation (see ‘Record eurozone inflation,’ Baltics over 20%, and Bernie Sanders expresses doubts about Inflation Reduction Act (though he voted for it)), and the UK food inflation hit a record high (see ‘UK Food Inflation Hits Record High …’ ‘Food – inflation, security and the gathering storm’).

For years, I have warned about risks associated with USA sanctions.

We even put out the following video on August 12, 2018:

US Sanctions and Tariffs leading to New World Order?

Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev said new US sanctions would be a declaration of economic war. Iran, North Korea, China, Europe, and Turkey are also upset about USA sanctions and tariffs. A Turk asserted “Somebody must find a solution and stop the USA.” The BRICS nations see US sanctions and tariffs as helpful to their objectives to trade without the USA. Are “unintended consequences” of USA policies threatening the current Anglo-American world order and leading to a New World Order? What has ‘Lord’ Jacob Rothschild and Russian President Vladimir Putin stated? Does Bible prophecy show that a confederation of Turks, Arabs, and Europeans pose a real threat to the USA and UK? Is the final time of the Gentiles coming? Will it be worse than people imagine? Dr. Thiel addresses these issues and more. Here is a link to our video: US Sanctions and Tariffs leading to New World Order?

Both the Trump and Biden Administrations have been inclined to impose sanctions. This has contributed to inflation.

But the sanction has also been leading many nations, including China, to try to get around them and USA influence.

Notice headlines from some COGwriter news posts from this month and last month:

The USA has been pushing countries away from its currency.

USA sanctions are pushing the Gentile nations to come up with something that the USA will not like.

The Russians have called US actions hypocritical. China basically did the same thing today.

The Bible tells of destruction coming to “an hypocritical nation” (Isaiah 10:6, KJV).

The USA does not seem to realize that it is undermining its position as the world’s primary reserve currency through its sanctions and other policies.

This is an unintended consequence of US sanctions policies.

The Bible points to the end coming to the USA (cf. Daniel 11:39) and economic mishandling will be a factor (cf. Habakkuk 2:6-8).
