Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The act of state doctrine holds that a U.S. court will not examine the validity of a foreign government's actions taken within its own territory. Therefore, GPI's loss of property in Hong Kong at the hands of the government of China would likely be shielded from a U.S. court's consideration due to the act of state doctrine.
