Trump's Potential Return Faces Diplomatic Hurdles with China

China's sanctions on key Trump officials complicate U.S.-China relations if he wins a second term.

China sanctioned 28 former Trump administration officials, including Mike Pompeo and Robert O’Brien, after President Biden took office in 2021.
The sanctions, which include travel bans, were imposed in response to what Beijing viewed as anti-China policies from the Trump administration.
If Trump wins the 2024 election, his administration would face challenges in navigating U.S.-China relations due to these sanctions.
Experts suggest potential workarounds such as third-country meetings or temporary waivers to manage diplomatic interactions.
China's stance adds complexity to an already strained bilateral relationship, with significant implications for future U.S. foreign policy.
