China is sanctioning six American defense companies and senior executives for their involvement in a recent US arms sale to Taiwan, according to the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
The sale “seriously violates the one-China principle,” interferes in China’s internal affairs and undermines the country’s sovereignty and territorial integrity, according to the ministry’s statement.
