Ahead of U.S. President Donald Trump’s inauguration, China has taken a decisive step by imposing sanctions on seven U.S. military companies and freezing their assets. The move reflects China’s firm stance on its policy towards U.S. military involvement with Taiwan.
China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesperson, Mao Ning, announced the sanctions during a press briefing, stating that all assets of the seven U.S. military companies in China have been frozen.
The companies sanctioned include Ansys Incorporated, Hudson Technologies, Saranak Technologies, Raytheon Canada, Raytheon Australia, Aircom Incorporated, and Oceanring International. Mao Ning explained that these companies and their senior management had undermined China’s national security by selling weapons to Taiwan.
The spokesperson also accused the United States of interfering in China’s sovereignty by providing military support to Taiwan.
This development comes shortly after U.S. President Joe Biden allocated $895 billion specifically for military training aimed at assisting Taiwan.
