China not afraid of US sanctions over SCS
Excerpt
China is not afraid of United States sanctions in the South China Sea or any brewing storm over Beijing’s actions in the disputed waters, the Chinese Foreign Ministry said on Wednesday. Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Hua Chunying urged the US to reflect on its foreign policies,but recognized the US is still the most developed country with the greatest strength and the only superpower in the world but “wantonly imposes sanctions or threatens to sanction others, which is just pathetic.” “We hope ‘sanction’ is not going to be the biggest and shiniest label that the US wants itself to be remembered by. It should earnestly reflect on its policies,” Hua said in a press conference.
