China approved a sweeping new national security law for Hong Kong Tuesday aimed at stifling dissent in a city where millions protested the past year demanding greater autonomy from Beijing.
The law drastically changes the complexion of Hong Kong society, which has long enjoyed special freedoms absent from the mainland that for decades have contributed to the city’s status as a global financial hub. The unanimous passage of the law by China’s top legislature plunges Beijing’s relationship with other major powers into deeper uncertainty. In just the past few months, China has taken a more confrontational stance with the United States, Taiwan, India and Australia.
In anticipation of the law’s passage, U.S. Secretary of State Michael R. Pompeo announced Monday the the U.S. would restrict exports of defense equipment to Hong Kong: “The Chinese Communist Party’s decision to eviscerate Hong Kong’s freedoms has forced the Trump Administration to re-evaluate its policies toward the territory,” Pompeo said in a statement.

“Any action on sanctions will not scare us.” says CarrieLam.

I am just wondering how would the United States retaliate on this. Travel and Visa Bans? Trade war? Military domination?
The problem is the US has no edge.
Visa restrictions. Sanctions.
USA is weak as Piss with agent orange in charge,nobody listens anymore,worried he has nuclear codes,fxxx Trump
I’m confused... i though China has the right to make their own laws without having to ask USA approval?
white people better wake up this is serious stuff.
Chinese communist party has no respect for benefits of mankind. As we can see world virus spread by them, it is just one of thing they have done to the world. Must hold them accountable.
Chinese communist party is dangerous to humanity. American businessman, you do not do business with them. You may have short term gains, but in the long term, you just feeds dangerous communist party and it will destroy whatever you have.
Free China from the racist, murderous Communist Dictatorship!
