US Lawmaker Slams Starbucks for Xinjiang Operations

Republican Congressman John Moolenaar, chair of the US House Select Committee on China, publicly criticized Starbucks for operating cafes in Xinjiang, calling it 'moral bankruptcy.' This escalates US political pressure on American companies with business ties to Xinjiang, potentially signaling future legislative or regulatory actions. The criticism is part of a broader US-China decoupling narrative, though no concrete policy change has been announced.
