Due to the mishandling of the spread of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) in the US, some Chinese companies and associations could file lawsuits against the US government, demanding compensation for their losses while experts in China's legal sphere have started research and risk-evaluation on this matter in the past two weeks, sources told the Global Times on Wednesday.

Some Chinese companies, which have seen their orders cut due to actions taken by the US government in fighting the pandemic, could sue the federal government or relevant state governments for compensation, and those with affiliates in the US could directly file the lawsuit in the country, Zhu Ying, deputy director of the National Human Rights Education and Training Base of Southwest University of Political Science and Law, told the Global Times.

Those without subsidiaries or branches in the US could file suits in China in China's Intermediate People's Court or above.

The preferable option is for companies bearing losses to file class action suits against the US government through business chambers, associations or civil groups.

Chinese makers of cigarette lighters have won an antidumping suit launched by European competitors, the first such victory since China joined the World Trade Organization in 2003, which was filed through the local lighter producers' association.

Many domestic companies resumed work in February as the epidemic gradually improved in China. However, the worsening situation in the US led to order losses among many export-driven businesses, significantly impacting Chinese factories and people.

"Lack of governance and mishandling of the pandemic by the federal government is a major reason for Chinese companies to bear losses," an anonymous expert on global affairs told the Global Times.

Chinese legal experts have started studying the feasibility and risks of suing the US government in the past two weeks, Zhu said.

"As long as they have evidence and their arguments are logical, Chinese companies and civil associations absolutely have reason to file lawsuit against the US," the expert added.

American companies can sue Chinese companies for technology theft and copyright claims... China then goes bankrupt.

LOL.

This from the country where the novel coronavirus almost certainly came from.

Like I say the Chinese simply just do not get it, do they?

God to see that Chinese media gets that American accusations and slander can not be dealt with constructive approaches, appeals to rationality and debunking them, but the overtone has to be pushed back and their attacks countered. Its the only language they understand.

Media also needs to rub the number of US tourists that went to Asian countries from January to March into their face and the list of countries where most cases are known to originate from the US, so every last tard gets it.
