So China could independently sanction America and seize Air Force One? Cool, cool. 😎
Was Air Force One illegally purchased in China and smuggled out?
If the U.S. was under sanctions at the time; yes.

If the U.S. can unilaterally sanction a country and seize a legally purchased asset and call it illegal, then another country could do that to the U.S.
Countries can do a lot of things. You're discussing something that didn't happen though.
According to the article, we sanctioned Venezuela, and they ignored those sanctions to purchase and smuggle a plane from the US.
The sanctions themselves are a separate discussion, but I think a reasonable person could expect some form of consequence. To be clear, I'm not defending the sanctions. I haven't spent enough time reading about them to form an opinion.
