Hong Kong gives a direct challenge to America, refuses to accept sanctions on Russian company

Till now you must have heard about the insistence of North Korea's cynical dictator Kimjong, who does not obey any order of America. Kimjong also frequently threatens to attack America with missiles and atomic bombs. Despite all the sanctions, Kimjong continues to conduct missile tests without any hesitation. Now another small country Hong Kong has also given a direct challenge to America. This has increased Biden's fury.

In fact, the US recently banned the 'Superyacht' company owned by the Russian businessman, but Hong Kong refused to accept it. Hong Kong leader John Lee said on Tuesday that he would only enforce UN sanctions. Will not accept any US sanctions. Earlier, the US warned that Hong Kong's financial hub status could be in jeopardy if Hong Kong continues to be a haven for banned persons.

Hong Kong leader John Lee's statement came on Tuesday after a luxury yacht owned by Russian businessman Alexei Mordashov stopped off the city's coast a few days ago. Mordashov is considered close to Russian President Vladimir Putin and was banned by the United States, Britain and the European Union after the Russian attack on Ukraine in February. Hong Kong officials have said they cannot unilaterally enforce restrictions imposed by other governments.

"We can't do anything that has no legal basis," Lee said. We will abide by UN sanctions, that is our system. Others are not obliged to obey the restrictions of any country. A US State Department spokesman said on Monday that the use of Hong Kong soil as a safe haven by banned individuals raises questions about the transparency of the business environment. A State Department spokesperson also said that its reliance on compliance with international law and standards could harm the city's reputation as a financial hub. Despite this, Hong Kong has refused to accept any sanctions, challenging Biden directly.
