US congressional representatives announced legislation on Tuesday calling for a ban on sales of riot control equipment to Hong Kong law enforcement services, as unrest in the city entered its fourth month.
If passed, the bill would prohibit US companies from exporting so-called non-lethal crowd control items like tear gas, as well as defence articles and services, to Hong Kong, where the local police force is facing growing criticism of its response to protests."
One thing you have to admire about usa is that it takes a stand openly and does not pussyfoot around.
Unlike UK, which will be always devious in its dealings. The British will sit on the fence in public and go with the tide, economic gain being their sole aim.
Bad news for china and its supporters as the USA Congress has got involved. I predict even more sanctions against Chinese , like against Iran.
China will have to obey the American wrt human rights.
