An Observation: On China*

Situation: Nation X, which is a "Brutal Dictatorship"/"Terrorist Regime"/Nation-that-America-Generally-Doesn't-Like-at-the-Moment, does something flashy. Something overtly threatening.

Question: Nation X does extensive trade with China. Indeed, blahblahblah percent of China's import/export trade in yaddayadda comes from/goes to Nation X. If UN sanctions are imposed on Nation X and China doesn't play ball, will those sanctions have any real effect?

Answer: Nope.


*Based on personal observation of years of news discussion.
