  • Texas governor has instructed state agencies to "divest at the first available opportunity" from China in a move aimed at Beijing.

The article from MSN, titled "Greg Abbott's War on China," discusses Texas Governor Greg Abbott's aggressive stance against China, focusing on economic and security issues. Abbott has taken several measures including banning TikTok on state devices due to its Chinese ownership, and has criticized China for various reasons such as intellectual property theft, human rights abuses, and the spread of the COVID-19 virus. He has also pushed for Texas to divest from Chinese investments and has supported legislation to prevent Chinese nationals from buying land in Texas, citing national security concerns. This approach reflects a broader trend of increasing anti-China sentiment in U.S. politics, with Abbott positioning himself as a leader in this movement, often aligning with former President Donald Trump's views on China. However, these actions have sparked debate over their economic implications and potential for fostering xenophobia.
