The Real Reason the US Can NEVER Sanction China

Will the US sanction China like it has Russia? It's nearly impossible for America to do so as the future of the US economy depends on strong trade with China

As always thank you all for your amazing support!

The one thing I learnt from the Ukraine Conflict is: Do not underestimate the stupidity of the American Politician.

[jerrysmith]

The simple fact is China could easily counter sanction the US. So far despite America has black listed bunch of Chinese companies, but China mostly chose not to do so yet. However, if the worst came, the easiest target China could sanction on would be GM, which would not only cause GM bankrupt again and would put entire US auto industry in tailspin. US economy would plunge into deep recession.

America should stop bullying and sanctioning others. Focus on economic development for the good of mankind.

For the first in history, Saudi Arabia is willing to accept the RMB for oil payments. Likewise, China should accept the Saudi Riyal as official currency for bilateral transactions convertible to quantities of oil. That effectively bypass the US dollar.

Cyrus, your program is informative for both Americans and Chinese, let them know each others better to avoid wrong action taking. 知己知彼, 减少误判而产生错误的行动, 导致美国人和中国人甚至世人的受难或灾难！👍

One more thing to consider: US companies have trillions worth of assets invested in China, if the US government freezes Chinese assets such as foreign currency reserves, there's nothing to stop China from retaliating by doing the same to US assets based in China.

EDIT: another retaliatory option for China is to impose a complete embargo on rare earth minerals to the US & all US allies.

it is easy for China to transfer into the US style, that runs on financial businesses mostly. But China would not do that, cuz the great Chairman Mao said, we must plant our focus on industrial and infrastracture area, that's the only way that coule let the most of the people in this country take a part of the country's development, and make benifits from it.

But in order to catch up with the world, China has take a "short cut" for the last few decades, that is very close to the US way, there were many rich guys pop out these years. But even though, the real goal was always to "let a few people get rich first, then these rich people would help the others get rich, and reach common prosperity eventually".

So as everyone could see, China is trying to make a change now, 1st they cant play low profile anymore since many countries has put China in the "threat" list, 2nd the Gini index of China right now is even higher than the US. It is time to say good bye to the US way, and get back to the Chinese way or Mao's way.

That's why you could see China could dare stand against the west straightly and no more compromises these years.

Plus China has become the world's factory for a long time, almost no country could survive without MIC(made in china) products. So when you transfer most of your industrial to lower-labor cost countries, and runs the country highly depends on financial businesses, just like the US did, how could you win a trade war against China?

After all these years' watching the world's leaders policy, I would say none could ever get close to China's leaders, especially on the VISION territory.

[coyote]

I am beginning to think that the USA is the most evil empire the world has ever seen😢 look after your own country and people and not interfere in other peoples.

Thank your for the rational analysis when confrontation with China has become a form of political correctness. I was born and raised in China, lived in the US for a good number of years, and I am currently back in China, working for a government-owned investment firm specialized in overseas investments.
I remember the days in the 2000s and the first half of the 2010s, when most people in both countries general felt positive about each other, when economic collaborations and cultural exchanges were welcome, and when both countries and their people largely benefitted from trade. Since when did antagonism replace cooperation and become the defining principal of China-US relations? Media in the US is portraying China as the ultimate villain and the archememy of the US because of its "authoritarian regime" and so on, which has fueled fear and animosity towards China among most general Americans, although most of whom have not ever been to China or talked to anyone from China. Likewise, Chinese state media is doing the exact opposite, fueling hostility towards the US among most Chinese people.
Actually if you guys have ever been to China, you will notice that the Chinese people are very pragmatic. We don't care that much about ideology, and we just mind our own business and work extremely hard for it to achieve a better life. And that is why this seemingly authoritarian regime has generally been supported, because imperfect as it is, it really excelled at growing the economy and improving the quality of life in the past decades. True, it might be an "authoritarian" regime by standards of the West, and many of the typical features of a "Western democracy"might be missing here, but the way Chinese people live, work, and do business here is really not that different. We are all reasonable human beings with a lot of common interests to pursue with our Western counterparts, like we have always been. In my job I work with business professionals from the US and Europe on a daily basis, and despite all the political tension in recent years, both sides have displayed a tremendous amount of professionalism and respect and just focus on getting the job done. Cooperation like this should have been the main them of the relations between China and the US (and the West at large). I still hope these days of mutual hatred can eventually end (although the end is nowhere in sight), and both sides can benefit from a normalized relationship again.

Since Cyrus lived in China for ten years, his perspective on the US/China relationship is so informative. Thank you once again Cyrus!

[tepuy]

Looking back at all the actions of US, it would not mind shooting itself on the foot so don't be too sure about that .

[kaizersouza]

The US is good at money printing, 0% productivity, and 100% laziness.

[Musicable]

Without the goods imported from China, the inflation of the US would be out of control. Also, China is the most important growth engine for many American corporations. Apple had announced that China would be the most important market if Apple wanted to keep its high growth rate. However, the interests of those politicians are not the same as most commoners so the Chinese government would not hope the US government acting rationally, not decoupling with China. As a result, Chinese government has already started some contingency plans in fields such as finance, technology, energy, food and resources to avoid or reduce the damage of the US government's sanctions. I believe in terms of preparation for Sino-America decoupling, Chinese government is more well prepared than the US government.

Our two nations coming together and finding a way to work together is the key to the problems

[Jonathantuba]

I would like to think that sanctions will never be put on China, but the madness of politicians in Europe with their sanctions on Russia which hurt Europe more than Russia makes me question this?

[relaxwhc]

If you believe China is a progressive and peaceful nation, raise your hand 👍🙋‍♀️✋

[antiimperialism]

Reading the title of your video raised a question every sane person must ask, who gave the Imperialist the right to unilaterally sanction others?

[kiaora]

Biting the hand that feeds you, immediately comes to mind 😊

[ricardoluitam]

Amazing video. Keep up the good work. Support
