Jesus, I want to see the lemmy.ml post for this.
They are sharpening their sickles and hardning their hammers.
“How dare they take his luxurious private jet, he needs it to serve his people!”
I mean, if anyone needs a private plane, it’s the leader of a country. Shits too tense nowadays for any group to risk that
I don’t think I do want to see it. Those people can be creepy as fuck.
So China could independently sanction America and seize Air Force One? Cool, cool. 😎
Was Air Force One illegally purchased in China and smuggled out?
If the U.S. was under sanctions at the time; yes.
?
If the U.S. can unilaterally sanction a country and seize a legally purchased asset and call it illegal, then another country could do that to the U.S.
Countries can do a lot of things. You’re discussing something that didn’t happen though.
According to the article, we sanctioned Venezuela, and they ignored those sanctions to purchase and smuggle a plane from the US.
The sanctions themselves are a separate discussion, but I think a reasonable person could expect some form of consequence. To be clear, I’m not defending the sanctions. I haven’t spent enough time reading about them to form an opinion.
