China’s international ministry stated it might apply sanctions in opposition to US officers together with Senators Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio beginning Monday, in response to Washington’s transfer on Friday to impose sanctions on 11 Hong Kong and Chinese language officers whom it accused of curbing political freedoms within the metropolis.
Final month, China had already introduced sanctions in opposition to Cruz, Rubio and different US officers after Washington penalised senior Chinese language officers over the therapy of Uighur Muslims in its Xinjiang area.
