What a great way for US firms to be branded (more accurately: observed to be) unreliable partners. Long term this is a fantastic way to dilute US influence globally.

Solid play on the part of the US' adversaries to have their agent perform this move on their behalf.

It's easy to blame adversaries, but US conservatives have had a self-destructive self-hating political culture for a very long time. You don't have to go further than COVID masks/vaccinations/lockdowns to see it in action.
