USA to Impose Sanctions on Hong Kong Leader

The tension between the USA and China is increasing day by day. This time, the United States reported that it has decided to impose sanctions on 11 people, including Hong Kong chief executive Carrie Lam. The tension between the Trump administration and China has continued since the coronavirus outbreak was declared. The two trade giants threatening each other continue to impose sanctions on each other. The United States criticized Beijing's decision to pass a comprehensive national security law aimed at limiting Hong Kong's autonomy and banning publications critical of the Chinese Communist Party. The Trump administration recently denounced the one-year postponement of the Legislative Council elections in Hong Kong, demanding a revision of the decision, Pompeo said, "It is likely that Hong Kong will never vote for anything or anyone again.".
