China sanctions US congress members, officials and NGO heads

Sanctions Imposed by China on U.S. Officials

BEIJING (Reuters) – China has imposed sanctions on specific U.S. congress members, government officials, and heads of non-governmental organizations due to their “egregious behaviour on Hong Kong-related issues,” according to the foreign ministry on Monday.

These sanctions are in retaliation for the U.S. imposing sanctions on six Chinese and Hong Kong officials last month. Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun expressed that China “strongly condemns” the actions of the U.S.

Guo stated, “Any wrong action taken by the U.S. side on the Hong Kong-related issue will be met with resolute and reciprocal counteraction by the Chinese side.”
