The head of mainland China’s Liaison Office in Hong Kong, Luo Huining, pointed out that the recent personal US sanctions will have zero effect on him and only prove that he is doing “the right thing.”
Luo said that restrictions against him are meaningless since he does not have any assets in the US.
