flag Missouri seeks $25B from China over pandemic PPE, but enforcement unlikely due to sovereign immunity.

flag Missouri is pursuing a $25 billion judgment against China over alleged PPE hoarding during the pandemic, following a default win after China failed to respond. flag In response, China filed a countersuit in Wuhan seeking $50.5 billion, an apology, and future claims, calling Missouri’s case politically driven. flag U.S. legal experts doubt enforcement is possible due to sovereign immunity, and the case is seen as symbolic, with little chance of asset recovery. flag The U.S. State Department has been urged to identify Chinese government assets, but such actions could provoke retaliation. flag Both sides view the litigation as a diplomatic standoff, not a practical path to payment.
