Led by the United States, a core coalition including Australia, Japan, and the United Kingdom evaluates the feasibility of imposing preemptive or reactive financial and trade restrictions.

Detailed macroeconomic modeling predicts that while multilateral sanctions could reduce China's GDP by over 2.5%, they would also cause substantial global disruptions, particularly in the electronics and manufacturing sectors.
