"Should the world hold China to account and sue China for the collapse of countries economies? Apparently think tanks are toying with this idea." Not this again. What good would come out of sanctions against China? The only people who will suffer if it happens are poor people. Have you not seen what happens to most countries who get sanctioned and who suffers the most? Economics sanctions will only make things worse for those who don't have much already | |||

The whole country runs on chicanery, lies and misinformation. Yes, very serious questions, investigations and hard hitting consequences need to be leveled at the CCP. My concern is for the people, as they don't really have a choice in what their so called 'government' says or does. The CCP is bang out of order. | |||

"The bit i don't understand is how china managed to infect the whole world except Shanghai and Beijing. Miracle " Quite rightly, I think many of us have the same thoughts. I am of the belief the Chinese infection rate is in its millions. It just does not compute a country with high, dense population would have such low figures. | |||

"If China tried to cover this up and colluded with the WHO why shouldn't they be held responsible?" No, let's not find out what happened, because the details are far from black and white, it's a very complex situation. Let's Donald Trump it, and do anything we can to deflect from our own governments poor performance during the pandemic. The masses will eat it up. | |||

"Should the world hold China to account and sue China for the collapse of countries economies? Apparently think tanks are toying with this idea.

Who would really suffer? | |||

"Yeah trade sanctions,,,,,,,," Thats a joke, both B.A. and Virgin are sending empty passenger jets to China and they are returning full to the brim with Chinese made medical equipment and supplies. The world is too dependent on China, ask Trump, he has tried it. Perhaps your thread is yet another China bashing one. | |||

"I guess China could sue us for cjd. They could sue South America for bird flu. Democratic Republic of Congo for hiv. I think UK / France and the USA are on the hook for Spanish flu. Sudan and the Democratic Republic of Congo for ebola. I guess Britain and America can be on the hook for pretty much all cancer deaths due to our trade in tabaco. But why stop there, Africa and India can sue for colonialisation reparations, so that is alot of eu countries. But then I guess the romans and Egyptian and Greeks did their fair share so they will be on the hook for some blame about something. The Australian aboriginals probably should take a shot at the UK. It would go on forever. " This is what I think when I hear about people wanting to "sue" China. All hyperbole and bluster. People are bitching and moaning about being asked to stay in the comfort of their own homes with all their latest mod cons. Can you imagine living in a world without the latest smartphone, ultra tv etc from China? Wouldn't bother me but I'm sure those calling for sanctions, probably using Chinese technology would soon fetch and moan about having to pay through the nose. | |||

When I read the comment you are responding to, I thought that the line reminded me of the kind of thing Trump would say. Unfortunately I’ve had to make that comment and turn it political. because he is trying to political point score over this. He’s loving all the anti Chinese feeling at the moment and is growing ever stronger as a result. | |||

There is very good evidence China doesn’t like other countries meddling in their affairs . When U.K. made comments about the HK protests, the Chinese ambassador to the U.K. was very quick to send a very strong message to the effect “butt out!”
I think diplomatic sanctions by the global
community could make a difference .
Surely the ultimate goal would be for this current situation not to happen again . | |||

Recognising taiwan is a complete non-starter. If the trade sanctions were ruthless enough that China stopped caring about relations with the west, they'd probably invade taiwan and take it back the good old fashioned way. China also still has a huge headache going on which has been put on the back burner for the moment - Hong Kong, they appear to be taking the current situation as an opportunity to do some housekeeping - arresting 15 pro democracy protestors, including the guy who wrote the 1 country 2 systems rule of law in Hong Kong . https://www.scmp.com/news/ hong-kong/politics/article/3080529/ least-12-hong-kong-opposition-veterans- arrested-police-over I think the point of using diplomatic sanctions is that it would ultimately be a more constructive punishment for the Chinese government and officials, thus making them think twice about any future cover ups . This would ultimately be a better result for the rest of the world than sanctioning trade/finance which would hurt the rest of the world more than it would the Chinese government . Generally pissing off China on issues entirely unrelated to virus outbreaks isn't what I'd call constructive punishment. Neither is shooting ourselves in the foot, and still having the cover-ups, resulting in huge global upheaval Guess we'll have to write them a strongly worded letter then
There is very good evidence China doesn’t like other countries meddling in their affairs . When U.K. made comments about the HK protests, the Chinese ambassador to the U.K. was very quick to send a very strong message to the effect “butt out!”
I think diplomatic sanctions by the global
community could make a difference .
Surely the ultimate goal would be for this current situation not to happen again . "Do you honestly think that the UK or US government are any differant in that respect?? They are very far from whiter than white.. | |||

"Should the world hold China to account and sue China for the collapse of countries economies? Apparently think tanks are toying with this idea." The UK started slavery, using your words, we should be sued by everyone effected negatively by this and our country. Blaming a country to the fault of s human is a stupid idea. This was going to happen at some point in our lifetime. Why not stop with the blame culture and look at all the positives. That's the biggest problem with our species, we want to blame someone way more than we want to make it right and not happen again. | |||

"But it has originated from China, they have misguided the WHO and three docters who tried to warn everyone, One has died and the other two have disappeared,,,,,,,there is so many things that dont check out, but everyone is letting it slide,,,,,,,something is not right, if various countries are talking about this then something is going on surely
The very nature of the regime the CCP runs makes it virtually impossible to clearly understand what is true and what is false. The whole country runs on chicanery, lies and misinformation. Yes, very serious questions, investigations and hard hitting consequences need to be leveled at the CCP. My concern is for the people, as they don't really have a choice in what their so called 'government' says or does. The CCP is bang out of order. "Sound familiar? | |||
