I agree both parties are imperialistic and pro-war.
The Republican bomber should have a KKK sticker on it since far right wing Republicans want a white ethnostate.
China doesn't need that amount. It is "壮士断 腕".
Banning exports to Lithuania would be more far harmful than imports, there's no way Lithuania would do that themselves.
90% of all consumer products are made in China, if you include Chinese components that could be 100%. Lithuania would probably survive because it could import from a third country like Germany, but as you mentioned it would lead to increased prices. Lithuania is already a poor country with prices high for the typical local wage.
I think China should go ahead and do it. Not to make it too much of a diplomatic incident - just say we can't have diplomatic or economic relations with a nation that recognises an illegal entity, and leave it at that.
Sure. China does not waste time to argue with these crazy dogs, just use real action to answer.

They are part of the EU. It would be pointless to ban exports to them as they can easily order it from a neighbouring EU country and just drive trucks across the boarder to collect the goods.
Global Times Editorial, response towards Abe's comments on intervening in Taiwan
At least the Americans let the Japanese get away with their war against them in WW2. Today, China might not be feeling as merciful if Japan crosses the huge red line
Quite a forceful statement. If Japan dares to intervene in Taiwan, Japan might not even survive as a country. The Japanese honorary white leaders should take note.

Then, South Korea's national security adviser Suh Hoon goes to China to meet with Yang Jiechi
South Korea's national security adviser Suh Hoon held talks with a top Chinese Communist Party diplomat in China's eastern city of Tianjin on Thursday, as Seoul steps up diplomatic efforts to declare a formal end to the 1950-53 Korean War.
Suh and Yang Jiechi, head of the Chinese Communist Party foreign affairs, are expected to discuss a wide range of issues of mutual concern, including Seoul's push for an end-of-war declaration on the Korean Peninsula and supply chains of key industry materials.
The Korean War, in which South Korea and a U.S.-led United Nations Command fought against invading North Korean forces backed by China, ended in an armistice, not a peace treaty.
The Moon Jae-in administration believes an end-of-war declaration will help revive stalled peace talks with North Korea.
China is believed to have expressed its willingness via diplomatic channels to join an end-of-war declaration as one of the signatories to the 1953 armistice agreement.
"The two nations have worked together to achieve the joint goals of the complete denuclearization and the establishment of permanent peace on the Korean Peninsula. I expect closer cooperation to maintain the peninsula situation in a stable manner and to move forward a peace process," Suh said in his opening remarks.
Suh expressed gratitude for China's cooperation with regard to the recent supply crunch of urea solution, a key fluid needed in diesel cars to cut emissions, and voiced hope for close consultations down the road to prevent any recurrences.
Yang stressed the importance of and need for close, strategic communications between the two nations, saying that Beijing seeks to further enhance bilateral ties so as to contribute to peace and development in the region and beyond.
Asked about the prospects of discussions on the declaration, Suh replied the two sides will hold overall discussions.
The two sides "will discuss bilateral relations in general, as next year marks the 30th anniversary of establishing diplomatic ties," Suh told reporters.
Suh is expected to brief Yang on Seoul's latest efforts to formulate the declaration with Washington. He could also ask for China's cooperation in drawing the North back to the negotiation table.
Suh and Yang could also discuss President Moon Jae-in's possible visit to Beijing for the Winter Olympics in February. Seoul is believed to be considering the Olympics as a possible venue for declaring an end to the war. (Yonhap)
