BEIJING: China has hinted at imposing sanctions on US officials in Taiwan for “disgusting behavior.”
In response to a question at the State Department’s daily news briefing on Monday, Hua Chenning said China stands by its promise to pay a “heavy price” to the United States if it does not refrain from intervening in Taiwan, according to a foreign news agency. “It simply came to our notice then. Therefore, China will impose sanctions on some US officials
The Chinese Foreign Ministry’s statement came after the lifting of a ban on the exchange of US delegations with Taiwan. Also last week, US Ambassador to the United Nations Kelly Craft telephoned Taiwan’s President Tsai Ingwen following a scheduled visit to Taipei.
Asked about US sanctions on government officials in Hong Kong, the Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman said that even in this case, US officials, representatives and private organizations have been accused of playing a vicious role. It has been decided to impose sanctions. He did not elaborate on the nature of the sanctions or the nature of the sanctions
China has repeatedly made it clear that Taiwan is the most sensitive and important issue for it, so some time ago China imposed sanctions on US companies selling arms to Taiwan.
