Do everything necessary to stop sanctions-busting and expose
PRC complicity. Apply pressure on countries (even friendly
ones) that violate sanctions.
Apply asymmetric pressure on China. Raise the downside risk
to the PRC and its leadership for supporting North Korea.
More specifically:
• Suspend the Bank of China’s license for a year so it cannot
operate in the United States or handle U.S. dollars.
• Greatly restrict U.S. financial and technology exports to
China (in other words, stop funding and bolstering the
Chinese Communist Party (CCP.)
• Require reciprocity as the basis of all dealings with the PRC.
• Expose the overseas wealth of the top CCP leadership.
Keep the South Korea-U.S. military alliance strong and
maintain its edge over North Korea and its ability to prevail in
a fight.
Address the economic component of the South Korea-U.S.
relationship – and reduce South Korea’s vulnerability to Chinese
economic pressure, as we saw China capitalize on following the
introduction of a THAAD battery in 2017 in South Korea.
Provide South Korea with economic support and advantages that
we should give our friends as a matter of course.
