Has the US enacted such “special protections” to any Country other than Israel?

“Has the US enacted such “special protections” to any Country other than Israel?”

The law is presented as combatting international boycotts led by foreign powers whose purpose and effect is to severely disrupt U.S. foreign policy.

So in theory the Anti-Boycott Act is NOT just limited to Israel, but to any organized, coercisive international boycott led by a foreign power which is disruptive to U.S. foreign power.

But I don’t think it has ever been used other than for the anti-Israel boycott by the Arab League.
