China unveils its first foreign relations law to counter western hegemony | Oneindia News
China has unveiled a sweeping foreign relations law enshrining its right to impose “countermeasures” against actions that it deems a threat.
This is Beijing’s latest bid to bolster its position amid strained relations with the West.
The law, approved on Wednesday and entering into force July 1, comes as China’s authoritarian government pushes back against what it sees as American efforts to suppress its development, following US export controls on some high-tech goods and efforts to reduce reliance on Chinese suppliers in sensitive sectors.
In recent months, the United States has blacklisted several Chinese companies over their alleged participation in surveillance programs and has also pushed its allies to restrict semiconductor exports to China.
Beijing has also long decried Washington’s use of economic sanctions as a tool of US foreign policy…and in 2021 had enacted an anti-foreign sanctions law aimed at combating overseas measures imposed on Chinese interests.
The new law, however, doesn’t appear to add any additional anti-sanctions tools
