But first I'd expect more fearmongering and a build-up. Maybe they'll send in some CIA patsies, get them caught doing the worst attempt at spying in the world (I suspect they may have done this in Russia) but one that can be charged in the Chinese justice system and one which is plausible enough it may be construed as a real attempt at spying if a relatively low impact one. Fear-monger and saber rattle over it, accuse China of kidnapping and arbitrary detention, blast it all over the news, put it in popular media, make the American people afraid that if they go there they'll be arrested and imprisoned "just for being American", ramp up accusations China will spy on your phone, that just bringing your phone there will allow the evil Chinese cell networks to implant see see pee spyware on your phone.
Lol this describes how so many people I know in Canada see China already. Funny how nobody seems to know that the two guys who were arrested actually were spies.
I do not expect a Travel ban persay like the DPRK, I expect something much closer to Cuba, where you can TECHNICALY go their, but you cannot spend money their, so a travel ban in all but name, so they can still say they do not hold a travel ban
I don't think they have to honestly, they just have to keep pumping sinophobic propaganda. Too many westerners (specifically north americans) already think China is literally 1984, and thus don't want to go anywhere near China, people are easily manipulated.
That is exactly why I expect a travel ban in the coming decade or two.
You can't hate China after you see it for yourself.
