On Wednesday, Republican Rep. Guy Reschenthaler appeared on Newsmax TV and said that China capitalized on the coronavirus pandemic and used it to impose a strict national security law on Hong Kong.
“China turned around and basically invaded Hong Kong, a quasi-independent city-state that was a Democracy, and took over this city-state against international treaties,” Reschenthaler said. “So, China is capitalizing, they’re on the move and they are becoming increasingly aggressive.”
“If you doubt China’s aggression, just look at how they handled this pandemic. We have information that the Chinese locked down (domestic) travel from Wuhan to the rest of mainland China yet allowed international travel from Wuhan, thereby spreading this virus all over the world and creating the worldwide pandemic,” he added. “Then to make matters worse China then capitalized on the pandemic” by invading Hong Kong.

Reschenthaler, a member of the China Task Force, listed China’s human rights atrocities, naval power in the Pacific Ocean and intellectual property transfers as some of the threats America faces from Beijing.
