CHINA: /U.S.: A reminder that NY hours saw the Editor in Chief of the Global
Times tweet the following: "Based on what I know, China will announce
countermeasure on Friday Beijing time. One US consulate in China will be asked
to close. China is forced to take this reciprocal measure. If not, it would
cause serious consequences."
- While the U.S. consulates in Chengdu and Wuhan have been outlined as potential
facilities that could be closed by China, more focus is falling on the
consulates in Hong Kong and Macau.
- The closure of the consulate in Hong Kong presents the greatest source of
potential geopolitical risk, if such a move comes to fruition.
