    No Winners in This Game: Assessing the U.S. Playbook for Sanctioning China

    Sanctioning China represents a challenge more complex than any other in the modern era of sanctions. Yet, if tensions with China escalate or conflict appears imminent, U.S. policymakers would reach for the sanctions tool as part of their overall response. Would sanctions work? Could the United States impose harsh sanctions without devastating the U.S. and global economies? Would any allies join the United States in a sanctioning effort? CNAS hosted a virtual discussion on Friday, December 15 to discuss a new report called No Winners in This Game: Assessing the U.S. Playbook for Sanctioning China, that explores these questions and challenges. Representative Mike Gallagher and Representative Raja Krishnamoorthi who lead the Select Committee on the Strategic Competition between the United States and the Chinese Communist Party provided opening remarks, and were followed by an expert panel.
