Next week :
- CHINA SANCTIONS. EU foreign ministers are set to approve travel bans and asset freezes on four Chinese individuals and one entity over violations of Uyghur rights in Xinjiang and reform of the electoral system in Hong Kong. Their names will not be made public until formal approval next week.
Lets see how China will respond. I will say this though, EU economy is extremely fragile now. Lets see how they will handle the China relationship
IMO, no way EU backs down from "soft" sanctions(some officials here and there, and maybe an organisation) but it will avoid "hard" sanctions(ban exports from the region, ban companies employing Uyghurs)
IMO, the US.in the future will try to enlist EU to collectively block exports from Xinjiang. So China must skillfully maneuver to avoid this.
