‘US attempting to maintain hegemony with China sanctions’
The recent sanctions imposed by the United States on the Chinese military are about Washington attempting to maintain its hegemonic position in the world, says a political commentator.
The US State Department on Thursday imposed sanctions against China’s Equipment Development Department (EED) — a branch of the Chinese military responsible for weapons procurement — for engaging in “significant transactions” with Russia’s major weapons exporter Rosoboronexport.
Jason Unruhe, a political analyst, told Press TV on Sunday that, “What the US is really trying to do is maintain its hegemonic position within the world both militarily and economically.”
The sanctions, he said, are attempts “by an empire that perhaps sees its position in the world coming to an end.”
He said the US was in fact expressing a great deal of frustration with the imposition of the sanctions.
