Senator Rick Scott (R-Fla.) on March 17 sent an open letter to business leaders praising them for ceasing their operations in Russia in response to its invasion of Ukraine, and urging them to replicate this strategy in the context of China before the latter power’s possible planned invasion of Taiwan.
With the massive sanctions placed on Russia, businesses now have gained a perspective on how decoupling and the shifting of operations work in practice, Scott said, and can apply the lessons learned in counteracting the threat posed by Beijing’s territorial ambitions.
